A member asked:
Would luvox cr make you less tired than immediate release?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Uncertain: The Drugs.Com site reported that somnolence can occur in up to 27% for both Luvox and Luvox CR. If there was a difference I would have in general expected lesser side effects with the controlled release formulations. I was not able to find any literature that showed a direct comparison for sedation in the two formulations.
