In reply to Abilify - What prevents you from taking 10-20mg?, posted by SLS on November 23, 2008, at 17:33:51
I took 10mg for a while, many many months. I told pdoc that I was feeling kinda sluggish. Well, that was *kind* of true, I suppose, but I was quite functional. He said to stop taking it. cold turkey. um? WTF? So, I took 5mg for a month and then quit. I had racing thoughts whenever I reduced/discontinued the med. The last time it toom 4 weeks for the racing thoughts to slow down to a jog/trot.
Overall, not many side effects at all on this med. I have experience with seroquel, geodon, zyprexa and abilify is BY FAR my preferred.
