- Day 8: stop administration of duloxetine.
- Day 11: start fluvoxamine 50 mg.
- Day 15: increase administration of fluvoxamine.
- Fluvoxamine inhibits the metabolism of duloxetine through CYP1A2.[3]
- Occurrence of the serotonin syndrome is not likely, but theoretically possible, so caution is necessary.
- ↑ Switches are based on literature references on this page and expert opinions of the authors. The authors have used pharmacokinetic and receptor affinity properties to determine the switch schedules
