What should I know about Cymbalta and birth control pills?

Answer by  JennW (342)

Very few drugs cause a reaction with birth control pills - Cymbalta is not one of them. There should be no interaction between Cymbalta and orac contraceptives, but because both of them can affect your mood, monitor yourself carefully for depression or mood swings.

Cymbalta is one of the safe pills. They won't react with the birth control pills. You should keep an eye on your behavior, like if you are having mood swings etc then you should contact your local doctor and ask him for advice.

Cymbalta and birth control pills shouldn't cause too man problems - I've been taking an anti-depressant and birth control pills for years and I haven't experienced any problems with interactions.

Always make sure with your doctor that it's okay when taking two different pills. Some pills can counteract and cause terrible side effects when combined.
