Excessive sweating on duloxetine

I’ve been taking duloxetine for two months, it has changed my life I love how much better I feel. However, I sweat constantly. Feel totally overheated and want to get fresh air as much as possible. Will it settle down? Is there anything I could take alongside to stop it? I’m really reluctant to come off it, it’s the first time in years I’ve felt alive.

Hi, I'm on it as well, and am interested to see people's answers as I'm suffering the same side effect, which is made worse by also being menopausal, I've been on it a lot longer than 2 months though and it's not got any better.

I had the same when I started sertraline. I guess it’s common with SSRI meds.

I've been on 120mg of Duloxetine for about 18months now, the sweating calmed down at 6 months.
