How Viibryd (Vilazodone) Can Help You

Viibryd is a medication that belongs to the class of drugs known as selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) with partial agonist activity at the 5-HT1A receptors. It works by increasing the levels of serotonin in the brain, a key neurotransmitter that affects mood and emotional state. Viibryd is commonly prescribed for treating major depressive disorder.

This medication is designed to be taken once daily, usually with food, to improve absorption and reduce potential gastrointestinal side effects. Your healthcare provider will start you at a low dose and gradually increase it to allow your body to adjust.

Viibryd is FDA-approved for the treatment of major depressive disorder, but it may also be used off-label for other conditions such as generalized anxiety disorder, obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), and premenstrual dysphoric disorder (PMDD). Off-label use indicates that while the medication is considered safe and effective for these additional conditions, they have not been fully studied or approved by the FDA for these specific uses.

It is crucial to follow your doctor’s instructions when taking Viibryd to ensure the best possible outcome and to minimize potential side effects. Never stop taking Viibryd abruptly, as doing so can lead to significant withdrawal symptoms. If you need to discontinue the medication, your doctor will provide a plan to taper off the dosage gradually.

Uses for Viibryd (Vilazodone)

Viibryd is FDA approved for depression, but it can also be prescribed off-label for other conditions. If you have any questions about why a medication is prescribed, feel free to ask your online doctor. We at Reimagine encourage open discussion regarding treatment plans and we want our patients to be well informed.

Major Depressive Disorder

Major Depressive Disorder (MDD) is a mental health condition characterized by persistent feelings of sadness, loss of interest in activities, and impaired daily functioning. Viibryd (Vilazodone) is used to alleviate symptoms of depression by enhancing the activity of serotonin in the brain, promoting improved mood and emotional well-being.

Generalized Anxiety Disorder

Viibryd, commonly prescribed for major depressive disorder, is sometimes used off-label to treat generalized anxiety disorder (GAD). Its unique mechanism of action, which involves both selective serotonin reuptake inhibition and partial agonism at 5-HT1A receptors, can help alleviate chronic anxiety symptoms.

Obsessive Compulsive Disorder

Viibryd, typically prescribed for major depressive disorder, may be used off-label to treat Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD). It can help reduce obsessive thoughts and compulsive behaviors by modulating serotonin levels in the brain.

How to Take Viibryd (Vilazodone)

Your psychiatrist will give you detailed instructions on how to take your Viibryd prescription. You can also ask your pharmacist if you have further questions.

Be sure to read and follow the directions on your prescription label. If you have any questions, contact your doctor or pharmacist.

Viibryd is available in different doses, so it’s important to adhere to the specific instructions provided. It is usually prescribed to be taken once daily with food to help with its absorption and to minimize potential side effects.

Viibryd (Vilazodone) Side Effects

Viibryd may cause various side effects, most of which are generally mild and related to physical discomfort. Common side effects include nausea, diarrhea, dizziness, and sleep disturbances. Many side effects that appear when an individual first starts taking the medication often go away after the first two to three weeks. Some individuals may also experience tiredness, sexual dysfunction, or a faster heartbeat while taking Viibryd. From our experience, risk of sexual dysfunction with Viibryd tends to be lower when compared to other serotinergic antidepressants and is therefore favorable because of this lower risk.

Less frequently, more severe side effects can occur, although they are rare. These may include symptoms indicative of serotonin syndrome such as hallucinations, sweating, twitching, nausea, vomiting, or diarrhea. Serotonin syndrome occurs when there is an excessive amount of serotonin in the body, often due to interactions with other medications that increase serotonin levels.

Other less common but potentially severe side effects of Viibryd might include blurred vision, seizures, difficulty breathing, unusual bleeding tendencies, low blood sodium levels, or severe nervous system reactions.

If you experience any severe side effects or notice new or concerning symptoms, it is crucial to seek immediate medical attention, including calling 911 if necessary. Always consult your healthcare provider if you have questions or concerns about the side effects of Viibryd.

Drug Interaction Awareness

Viibryd may interact with other medications and supplements. Always consult your doctor before changing your medication regimen, including over-the-counter drugs.

Alcohol and Viibryd (Vilazodone)

Check with your doctor or pharmacist before consuming alcohol while taking Viibryd. Regular alcohol use may increase side effects and reduce the medication's effectiveness.

Avoid MAO Inhibitors

Do not take MAO inhibitors while using Viibryd to avoid severe interactions. Inform your doctor of your medication history before starting Viibryd.

Stopping Viibryd (Vilazodone)

Consult your doctor before stopping Viibryd. Abrupt discontinuation can lead to withdrawal symptoms that can be very uncomfortable.
