Viibryd Information

medically reviewed by Dr. HaVy Ngo, Pharmacist on March 31, 2026.

Viibryd and Vilazodone at CanadaPharmacyOnline.com

The manufacturer of brand-name Viibryd (vilazodone hydrochloride) is AbbVie Inc. (originally developed by Trovis Pharmaceuticals and later acquired by Forest Laboratories/Allergan). Viibryd is a modern antidepressant that works differently from traditional SSRIs. It is available in several countries, including Canada and the United States.

Generic vilazodone was approved by the FDA and Health Canada in recent years and is produced by several reputable manufacturers, including Apotex, Teva, and Aurobindo. The specific manufacturer of the medication dispensed may vary based on pharmacy inventory. Generic vilazodone is sourced from manufacturers that meet applicable regulatory standards.

Important Information about Generic Vilazodone

Generic vilazodone contains the same active ingredient as brand-name Viibryd. It must meet the same effectiveness and quality standards. This means it is designed to work like Viibryd. Studies have shown that generic vilazodone is bioequivalent to brand-name Viibryd, meaning it has similar absorption and achieves comparable blood concentrations. However, individual responses to medication can vary due to factors such as metabolism, genetics, and other health conditions.

Dosage:

Viibryd (vilazodone) is available in the following oral strengths:
• Tablets: 10 mg, 20 mg, and 40 mg.

The dosage is typically started low and increased gradually to minimize side effects. Viibryd must be taken with food to ensure proper absorption.

Usage:

Viibryd is used to treat major depressive disorder (MDD) in adults. It is intended for long-term management of depression symptoms, such as persistent sadness, loss of interest in activities, and changes in sleep or appetite. Unlike some other antidepressants, it is often noted for having a lower impact on sexual function and weight gain in clinical trials, though individual experiences vary.

Mechanism of Action
Vilazodone is unique because it works as a dual-acting medication for the brain's serotonin system. Like a traditional SSRI, it blocks the brain from recycling serotonin. This keeps more of this mood-balancing chemical available between nerve cells. It also acts as a partial agonist at a specific serotonin receptor (1A). This means it directly plugs into and partially activates those receptors, helping the brain process serotonin more effectively and potentially leading to a faster or more robust antidepressant effect.

Take Viibryd exactly as your doctor prescribes, according to the product monograph. It is vital to take your dose with a meal. Taking it on an empty stomach can reduce its effectiveness by up to 50%.

The information below summarizes some, but not all, potential side effects, risks, and interactions. Before starting Viibryd, it is essential to discuss all possible side effects, risks, and interactions with your doctor or pharmacist.

Side Effects:

The information below outlines potential side effects of Viibryd (vilazodone). It is not an exhaustive list, and individual reactions can vary.

Common side effects: These are common side effects of Viibryd; other side effects are possible. Contact your doctor promptly if any side effects are persistent, worsening, or concerning, or if you experience any other concerning symptoms.
• Diarrhea (very common, especially when starting)
• Dizziness or trouble sleeping (insomnia)
• Dry mouth
• Nausea or vomiting

Serious Side Effects: Seek immediate medical attention or call emergency services if you experience any of the following symptoms:
• Abnormal Bleeding: Increased risk of bruising or bleeding, especially if taken with blood thinners.
• Low Sodium: Confusion, weakness, or feeling unsteady.
• Manic Episodes: Racing thoughts, extreme energy, or reckless behavior.
• Serotonin Syndrome: Agitation, hallucinations, rapid heartbeat, or extreme muscle stiffness.
• Suicidal Thoughts: Increased risk of suicidal thinking, especially in young adults under 25.

Contraindications:

The following is not an exhaustive list of contraindications. Before starting Viibryd, it is crucial to discuss all your medical conditions, past and present, and all medications you are taking with your doctor or pharmacist.

Do not take Viibryd/vilazodone if:
• Allergies: You have a known hypersensitivity to vilazodone
• MAOIs: Do not use Viibryd if you have taken a Monoamine Oxidase Inhibitor in the last 14 days.

Tell your doctor about all of your medical conditions, past and present, before starting Viibryd. This is crucial as certain conditions affect the drug's safety.

Drug Interactions:

Before taking Viibryd, discuss all potential risks and interactions with your doctor or pharmacist. For complete and up-to-date information, please visit the patient medication information at https://www.abbvie.ca/content/dam/abbvie-dotcom/ca/en/documents/products/VIIBRYD_PM_EN.pdf.

Provide your doctor with a complete list of all your medications, including prescriptions, over-the-counter (OTC) drugs, vitamins, herbal supplements, recreational drugs, and any significant dietary changes, as these may interact with Viibryd. Viibryd may interact with other medicines, including but not limited to:
• Blood Thinners/NSAIDs: Taking Viibryd with warfarin, aspirin, or ibuprofen (Advil/Motrin) can significantly increase your risk of bleeding.
• Other Serotonergic Drugs: Combining with other antidepressants, triptans (for migraines), or St. John's Wort increases the risk of Serotonin Syndrome.
• Strong CYP3A4 Inhibitors: Drugs like ketoconazole can increase Viibryd levels in the blood, requiring a dose reduction

Pregnancy and Breastfeeding:

Viibryd should be used during pregnancy only if the potential benefit justifies the risk. Exposure late in pregnancy may lead to breathing problems or withdrawal symptoms in the newborn. It is unknown if vilazodone passes into breast milk. Consult your doctor to weigh the risks and benefits of breastfeeding while on this medication.

Use in Children:

Viibryd is not approved for use in pediatric patients (children and adolescents under 18). Antidepressants can increase the risk of suicidal thoughts and behaviors in this age group.
