Abilify
Does anyone have any experience with Abilify? My pdoc just put me on it 2 days ago. I've already noticed a significant loss in appetite. I'm starting on 10mg. for 1 week, then up to 20 for 2 weeks, then to 30 mg. for my regular maitenance dose. What are some side-effects you guys have noticed on this med.? I feel pretty tired so far, all day too. But, (it's hard to tell) I don't think I'm as sleepy so far, as I have been on all of the other meds. they've tried over the last several years. I was switched to this because I've gained about 35 lbs. in the last 5 mo. on the max dose of Risperdal. I have been exercising, and, dieting religiously for the last month, and, I just couldn't seem to budge the scale. Has anyone had significant weight loss on Abilify? I would really appreciate any input anyone has to offer. Thanks!
Peace and Love,
Cgirl
