Table of contents:

Viibryd is a prescription medication used to treat major depressive disorder (MDD) in adults. It contains the active ingredient vilazodone, which is an SSRI (selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor) and a partial agonist of the 5-HT1A receptor. Viibryd works by increasing the levels of serotonin in the brain, which is a neurotransmitter that affects mood, emotions, and sleep.

Vilazodone can improve your mood, sleep, appetite, and energy level and may help restore your interest in daily living. Viibryd can provide relief from a range of mental health symptoms, such as sadness and irritability.
