    I've been on 120mg Cymbalta successfully for years (I know, I'm one of the lucky ones) and I drink wine occasionally.  When you do drink, just remember it will have more effect on you than if you didn't take anything.

    I assume because the site wants to keep the information flowing

    My response is as long ss your liver is healthy the odd beer or glass of wine is ok. However regular or excessive drinking will worsen the side effects and reduce the effectiveness of the medication for depression..
