For anyone wanting to try cymbalta, add it to other medications, or taper off of it, custom sized micro-doses work. As was mentioned by another psychobabbler a few weeks ago, you can empty a capsule, find a bunch of tiny white beads, and just take a certain amount of beads and swallow them down with water.
I didn't count them, but a 30mg capsule looks to have maybe 50 beads. I tried just 3 beads and it was plenty. I liked the warm, energizing, and pro-social effects I got. I cannot even imagine doing a full 30mg or 60mg. Oh my. Powerful stuff.
I remember someone else saying that some of those beads are fillers, but I don't think so. Mostly what is inside a capsule is air. I also heard that the beads can be destroyed by stomach acids if they aren't in the capsule, but I did not find that to be the case. The stuff definitely got into my system no problem.
The dosage choices of cymbalta are few. I like being able to custom size my doses and just wanted to confirm that the bead trick works just fine.
This is the end of the thread.
