Specifically, vilazodone is a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI) and partial serotonin receptor agonist, which means it works by affecting natural substances in the brain.
Like taking any medication, using vilazodone has certain side effects. Although many people who use Viibryd do not experience side effects, some less serious effects include diarrhea, nausea, vomiting, dizziness, trouble sleeping and decreased interest in sex. More serious side effects of using vilazodone are numbness/tingling, tremors, restlessness, inability to keep still, difficulty concentrating, confusion, memory problems, weakness, unsteadiness and pounding heartbeat. If any of these Viibryd side effects mentioned above get worse or persist, contact your doctor.
Very serious side effects of taking Viibryd are unusual or severe mood changes, bloody stools, vomit that looks like coffee grounds, easy bruising or bleeding, seizures, eye pain/swelling/redness, widened pupils and vision changes. Contact your doctor immediately if you notice any of these after taking vilazodone. Another rare but possible side effect of Viibryd treatment is the development of serotonin syndrome. This risk for serotonin syndrome is increased if you take other medications that affect your serotonin levels, which is why it is important to let all your doctors and pharmacists know which medications you are currently taking. Symptoms of serotonin syndrome are severe nausea, twitching muscles, unexplained fever and unusual agitation.
Using Viibryd may produce false tests for certain medical tests, including brain scans for Parkinson’s disease. Notify all appropriate laboratory personnel of your vilazodone use before taking any tests.
