A member asked:
Is there really any difference between luvox and luvox cr ...half life is only 1.5 hours different?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Luvox vs Luvox CR: Luvox is available in 25, 50 & 100 mg tablet strengths. Luvox CR comes as 100 and 150 mg capsules. The big advantage is that Luvox CR can be given as a single dose per day whereas, immediate-release Luvox should be given in divided doses if over 100 mg is prescribed.
