My daughter is taking Abilify for schizophenia. It is the only antipsychotic that has not induced seizures. She also has epilepsy.
She onced had a grand mal and neurologists increased dilantin to 300mgs and it caused toxicity and they lowered it to 200, still was too much for her system and lowered it to 150mgs and has been on this level for a year and a half and it doing fine.
My concern is if it is increased to 300mg she is going to have the same problem. This is why I had originally posted this message.
My question is why increase dilantin, Abilify should be increased since it has not caused seizures for her.
