>Any serotonergic drug carries the risk of hypomanic episodes. Based on subjective experience reports on drugs.com, my experience, here, crazymeds-- it seems to cause hypomania more frequently than other medications with SRI properties. Just something I've picked up on. I'd be hesitant to have vortioxetine monotherapy for a patient with bipolar depression. It's really not the "blockbuster" medication. I'm in love with its MOA, however. It worked better than sertraline for me, but only slightly. Definitely more activating, IMO. Definitely contributes more treatment-emergent side effects than most SSRIs based on experience reports. Subjectively.
