Viibryd (vilazodone): I have been on other anxiety medicines, which only added to my blood pressure spiking, but with Viibryd, my blood pressure has dropped down to normal readings, for example, 110/74, and I have the energy level I had before trying all of the other medicines. I highly recommend this medicine.

Viibryd (vilazodone): I have been taking Viibryd for 2 weeks now and I finally feel good again. No more anxiety attacks and my depression is lessening. I would totally recommend this product to anybody with anxiety.

Viibryd (vilazodone): I just started taking Viibryd five days ago. I switched from Zoloft to Viibryd. I was having bad headaches and an overall feeling of yuck in the mornings. I started feeling better at the end of the day when I was going to take my next dose of Zoloft. I also could not sleep. I would wake up at night and then couldn't go back to sleep. Since taking the Viibryd, I have been able to go back to sleep when I woke up in the middle of the night. I am a bit sleepy in the morning, but I am feeling a bit better. I am hopeful about Viibryd. I hope that my condition continues to improve and my sleeping patterns continue to get better as I increase the dosage and as time goes on. Zoloft did help, but the side effects were too much for me.

vilazodone: I had tried several different types of medicines and combinations of medicines for my anxiety and irritability. Cymbalta has given me terrible side effects: sweating, constipation, hair loss, hypertension, dry mouth, and weight gain. My doctor thought that Viibryd might be a better option. I was very apprehensive and I was ready to give up on medicines. The ramping up with the Viibryd (10mg to 20mg to 40mg) was a horrible experience. I had terrible nausea, diarrhea, vomiting, and spaciness. I couldn't distinguish if it was withdrawal from the Cymbalta (if that was possible with the switch to Viibryd) or if it was the Viibryd....could have been both. That all being said, now I'm on the 40mg and I feel great. I feel like the person I used to be.
