hey. let us know how it goes, please. my current 'treatment provider' is gung ho about some Vraylar. I'm afraid of EPS, TD, dysphoria...it clamps down on those D2 receptors tight, like Fort Knox. LOL. :-)
but seriously...it seems like it'd be good if there's loads of agitation, active psychosis, mania, etc. involved. I don't know where -I- fit in all that...
but please keep us all posted, OK?
oh, and I think stopping aripiprazole and then going straight over to Vraylar, maybe armed with a PRN sedative, might be a good idea. any time 2+ neuroleptics are used together, adverse effects pop up more frequently than using the equivalent dose of just 1.
how much Abilify do you take? I'm on...15-20. 15 by prescription, 5mgs/samples because I'm 'going thru it,' yet again. blah. :-(
hope things go well for you. :-)
