Brief Answer:
Yes, there are concerns...

Detailed Answer:

Hi,

Although rare, fentanyl and cymbalta can increase serotonin levels leading to complications. I would preferably ask / discuss about this with your psychiatrist and look for alternative depression management options.

Hope I have answered your query.
