Ingredients in duloxetine?

What active ingredient is in duloxetine?

Duloxetine’s active ingredient is duloxetine (typically listed as “duloxetine hydrochloride” on prescription labels and drug information). The exact salt form depends on the specific product.

What are the other ingredients (inactive ingredients) in duloxetine?

Duloxetine products use different inactive ingredients based on the brand and formulation (for example, delayed-release capsules vs other duloxetine products). Those inactive ingredients can include items such as:
- Capsule shell components (gelatin and colorants, depending on the product)
- Film-coating materials for enteric protection (for delayed-release versions)
- Binder/filler excipients inside the capsule/tablet
- Stabilizers and processing aids used to manufacture the dosage form

The inactive ingredient list can vary by manufacturer and by the exact duloxetine product you have.

How to find the exact ingredient list for your specific duloxetine?

To see the precise ingredients (including inactive ingredients) for your exact product, check the “Inactive ingredients” section on:
- The package insert for your specific duloxetine prescription, or
- The label for the formulation strength and dosage form (for example, delayed-release capsules)

If you share the exact product name (brand), strength (e.g., 20 mg/30 mg/60 mg), and dosage form (e.g., delayed-release capsule), I can help interpret what those ingredients usually are for that specific version.
