Unhappy Abilify costs are crazy!! Alternatives?

Abilify Cost is crazy!!!! alternatives?
Right now, I take geodon, generic 80mg bid. It cost me less than $50 a month.
My pdoc ordered a switch of my meds....my cost would be $350 a month that is over $4K a year. I did not pick up my prescription.
I need help.
What meds are more affordable.
I need a new antipsychotic.
thanks

Thank you so much Mari,
I just printed off a savings card off the abilify web site.
IT is almost too good to be true.
With the card and my insurance I would only pay $5 a month.
I need to activate the card.
There has to be some sort of catch to this.
I wonder what the injectable abilify would cost?
The geodon is not helping to prevent hypo manias....
but I have been drinking quite a bit and that doesn't help matters much.

I am feeling hopeful!

Bizi, Please go to GoodRx.com. There are coupons for some pharmacies (at least in my area) where you can save a TON of money on the Abilify generic now… At one place in my area, there is a coupon for around $50 for a one month supply.

The Abilify savings card you have may only be valid for one month, especially if it is for the brand name "Abilify."

In case the Abilify doesn't work out…
Have you ever been on Depakote or Lithium, aside from the kind you tried on your own?
