Anybody on Abilify?
I saw my doctor, she put me on 15mg Abilify. I noticed I was immediately sick at my stomach, headache, and erection. I was also unqualified to sleep but, I think that was because I am coming off Geodon.
I'm on 30 mg of Abilify, which I take at night. I have no side effects from it. It has really help me, as I am bipolar. I think you are experiencing withdrawl symptoms from going off your Geodon. But its hard to say as you are doing both at impossible to tell apart time. I would give the abilify a couple more days and if you are still having these symptoms, it would be a good idea to beckon your doctor and talk with him/her about it. Take care! Hugs! Von
Abilify is the only antipsychotic with few to no side effects. The one thing that's REALLY different roughly it though is that it must achieve a level, meaning it does not work right away like the rest of them do.
You should stay on your regular dose of Geodon for the first few days (even 10 to 14 days) of Abilify use and then depending on your current dose of Geodon, begin to very gradually wean stale after about 10 to 14 days. You may need more than 15mg of Abilify, although that is considered standard effective dose. My son is 13 years outdated, 185lbs, takes 20mg Abilify for maximum stability.
(Our pdoc removed him from Risperdal directly to Abilify and of course he didn't sleep for three days and had psychosis... until I read the information myself and discovered that it wasn't fast acting resembling Risperdal is) :(
15 mg seems like a glorious starting dose. I was started on 5 and I think went up to 10 before discontinuing next to it because it made me unbearably restless (a possible side effect), like I wanted to climb out of my own skin. It works really well for a friend of mine though. Maybe speech to your dr about taking a smaller dose to start out with.
I am presently on Abilify and thus far it is the individual type of that med that does not give me any side effects. I was not aware that it is slow acting or that it takes a while to get contained by your system.
I would discuss with your doc how you are feeling.
I used to take this medication 15mg and it give me severe insommnia, eventually they took me off it. But I have to say it was the solitary medication that I had no other side effects from.
