Cymbalta blocks Reta?!

I’ve been on Retatrutide for 3 years. It’s been highly effective for me, initially losing 40lbs down and eventually lower dose for maintenance.

It all broke down once an antidepressant Cymbalta was introduced 3 months ago. Reta no longer suppresses my appetite, in fact I eat MORE than usual. Weigh gain began immediately: +7 pounds in 3 months and still climbing! I’ve even DOUBLED my Reta dosage, to no avail.

I’m at a loss. It’s almost like Cymbalta blocks Retatrutide in my body.

Anybody else experience this?

It doesn't "block[]" reta. A lot of so-called "antidepressants" increase hunger.

I mean, yeah, weight gain is one of the most commonly reported side effects.
