> Thats exciting Scott that your MD prescribed Abilify.. I take 15 mgs per day,,, Broken into 2 pieces >> You might want to divide it ?
My doctor said that the side effects of Abilify are not dosage-dependent. He thought it logical to go right for the target dosage, especially since it takes quite a while for it to reach steady-state levels. So far, he seems to be right.The mean elimination half-life for Abilify is 75 hours (146 hours for poor metabolizers). For this reason, once-a-day dosing is recommended.
How have you been doing?
Take care.
