Viibryd For Anxiety Concerns

Updated

I have been on seroquel and buspar for about 4 years and my doc just added viibryd for the anxiety. Does anyone else take this combination and does it seem to work? My anxiety has gotten worse lately so he added this med. I started today with the 10 mg and supposed to do that for a week then 20 for a week and then the dose I'm supposed to stay on at 40mg. Thoughts anyone??

Hello, Bewinter! How are you?

Actually, the Buspar and Viibryd shouldn't be combined. There is a high risk of developing serotonin syndrome, if you take both of them, which could be life threatening.

I'd suggest double checking with your doctor, before taking them both.

Is there anything else I can help with?

Viibryd at 20 mg completely destroyed my anxiety! A miracle drug for me.

I've been on Vibryyd for about about a year now. I was on serequel for 2 years for bipolar, then developed bad agoraphobia anxiety. He took me off the serequel and just put me on viibryd. Works great. I have trouble sleeping and nightmares but I'm traveling again. I also have the Xanax incase. I wouldn't take all three of those meds together
