When I take my new medication Viibryd I notice my legs and arms sometimes feel almost asleep or numb. Almost a pins and needles feeling. Is this a side effect? Is there a way to stop this feeling or treat it?
Does Viibryd cause pins and needles in legs and arms?

The side effects of "pins and needles" are less common side effects which must be reported to your DR. asap.

Hi, Alicia!
"Common (1% to 10% of users): Dizziness, paresthesia, sedation, somnolence, tremor"
Side effects generally resolve within days to a week or two but as masso says they should always be reported to your health care professional.
Best regards and I hope this goes away for you quickly.
