The client has been prescribed duloxetine (Cymbalta) for the treatment of diabetic neuropathic pain. What information should the nurse provide to this client?


1. “The prescription is for a small number of capsules because the medication will be discontinued if it doesn’t work in a week.”
2. “This is a corticosteroid, so you may notice an increased thirst.”
3. “Your dose is lower than your wife’s because her prescription is for a different reason.”
4. “You may feel relief in as few as 5 days.”
5. “This drug is a narcotic, so be certain to keep it in a safe place.”
