In reply to New FDA Approval for MDD Viibyrd (Vilazodone), posted by bearfan on January 22, 2011, at 17:29:40

I suspect that vilazodone is going to be promoted extensively based on the alleged absence of weight gain and sexual side effects. To what extent these adverse effect occur in the real world remains to be seen. SSRIs were initially advertised as causing zero weight gain, but we now know that some patients do gain weight during long term treatment. Rates of reported sexual side effects were often quite low during SSRIs trials, which is in contrast to the real world experience with these drugs. I don't think patients were correctly assessed for these side effects.
