Urgent help: do you think this is a reasonable com

Posted by chinaboy on October 29, 2013, at 16:14:17

I went to see my psychiatrist the day before yesterday, and I was prescribed 20mg fluoxetine+5mg Abilify for mild depression and social anxiety, and also 50 mg Amisulpride for schizoid personality disorder.
Back home, I¡¯ve been in a constant worry that the 5mgAbilify might compromise the efficacy of 50 mg Amisulpride. Do you guys think that would happen? is this a good combo??
Any opinion would be appreciated!

Is there any possibility that low-dose Abilify can
worsen one's depresseion and can cause ocd?

thank u for providing me with the links. But due to my limited English proficicy, I cannot understand whether it is good or not to combine abilify with amisulpride. Can you give me a summrized idea?

This poster didn't benefit from the Abilify/amisulpride combination:

Quote:
"Coadministration of Abilify caused mild dysphoria, SSRI like numbness and decreased libido. I am doing better without Abilify..."
End quote.

I have no experience with Abilify/amisulpride and don't know anyone who have tried this combination, but it could still work for you. Have you noticed any change in your condition after you started with this?
