How Vilazodone Works
Vilazodone is the active ingredient in Viibryd and generic Viibryd. It is used for the treatment of major depressive disorder (MDD). Vilazodone is an antidepressant in a group of drugs called selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs). It works by helping to restore the balance of neurotransmitters such as serotonin in the brain. Viibryd may improve your mood, sleep, appetite and energy level which may help you to live a normal life.
Generic Vilazodone vs Brand Viibryd
The most significant difference between generic Viibryd and brand Viibryd is that the brand Viibryd is manufactured by Actavis and Allergan while the generic is manufactured by a different manufacturer (Intas Pharma). Generic Vilazodone is chemically and therapeutically identical to the brand. The generic works the same way within the body thus giving the exact same results. Blue Sky Drugs is leading the way in generic prescription and non-prescription drugs.
