When To Take Viibryd

Is.it best to take viibryd in the morning when I wake up? Or at night before I sleep?
I switched my brintellix for this viibryd monthly taper dose.
Days 1-7,10mg; Days 8-14, 20mg; Days 15-30, 40mg.
I know to take with food for best result. But what time of day is best time to ensure I get the best happy feeling!
Thanks so much, Junie Hicks

Hello, Junie! How are you?

These types of medications won't actually provide you with a happy feeling, that's not how they work.

As to when to take it, that is entirely up to you. You can try taking it in the morning, with breakfast and if it causes too much drowsiness, you may want to switch to taking it at night, unless your doctor instructed otherwise.

The FDA lists the other typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache and dry mouth.

Is there anything else I can help with?
