I would suggest that the combination of Cymbalta and Strattera should be cautioned due to the same issues of CYP2D6 combination. Strattera binds to 2D6.

Directly from the Cymbalta product monograph:

“Potent inhibitors of CYP1A2 should be avoided. (7.1)

• Potent inhibitors of CYP2D6 may increase duloxetine concentrations. (7.2)

• Duloxetine is a moderate inhibitor of CYP2D6. (7.9) “
