Dinah - honestly I'm not sure the abilify is helping any side effects or not. We started him on the abilify before starting the Luvox again. The idea being if he does have any of the behavioral issues (little or no self control, biting, licking, tantrums etc)that he had last time on Luvox (when we pushed the dosage up too high) that the abilify would counter for it.
He's on such a low dose of Luvox that it may be that it's just not at a high enough dose to push him over the edge. Either way, the combo has worked out pretty well for a while. I think if he should start experiencing "manic" moments again, I would increase the abilify before giving up on the Luvox.
