I have been taken Viibryd For quite a while now and it's making me sick. I was just wondering If it was possible to take it at night instead And the medicine be just as effective?
Can you take Viibryd at night or does it need to be taken in the morning?

Viibryd needs to be taken with food. Eating before you go to bed is not good for you in a general sense. Perhaps dinner would be a better time than breakfast.
Also, if you are just starting the side effects will go away after a while. The first couple of weeks are 'interesting'.

Thank you for your answer. Even eating a meal, it's still making me sick. We'll see if this works.

Dear Jamie, Hope you've now adjusted your Viibryd dosage and are feeling more comfortable. I have been taking this drug for 5 months. I detailed my experience in a long winded post about "viibryd nightmares" or viibryd dreams," in case you want to read further. I was initially taking my 40 at night, but was really plagued by incredibly terrifying nightmares during which I felt completely awake but could not actually awaken. I later learned that this horriblr side effect is called Sleep Paralysis. Really, really awful. I was in Europe at the time, so I made the change on my own to a morning dosage. Sometimes I still get nauseous, but it seems to be improving- I always try to have some milk and carbs for breakfast. I have also experienced the same terrifying "nightmares" if I forget to take a dose. I believe that the dosage spacing for Viibryd is really sensitive.

I apologize for not responding soon. I just realized you posted this.
Thank you for your help. I will look into your posting. I've not had any abnormal dreams yet but my dosages are lower and as tired as I've been lately, don't even remember any dreams. I do appreciate your help though. Hope you are doing well on your meds.
