Abilify
Posted: 06-15-06 09:06am

I was started on abilify (30mg) about a month ago and have experienced extreme feeling of weakness. I have gone down to a very low dose (2 1/2 to 5 mg) bacause of this, but think that a bigger dose is necessary and would like to build up to about 10-15mg. Is the weakness I feel something i'll have to put up with long term or does it go?

When you first start a medication such as this, it happens. It happened to me with risperdal, but eventually your body gets usedto it and the side effect wears off.

Firefly is right but if you feel uncomfortable with it, talk to your Dr., to me that is your best bet!
All the best!
