Abilify

Posted by canwetalk on February 19, 2003, at 10:23:20

My daughter has been on abilify now for just over a month. She is now on 15mg. I have noticed that her appetite is slowly increasing but not significantly.

She is sleeping better than she was when she first started taking it. Her system is getting use to it.

I am concerned however, because she at times talks rapidly to herself as well as get agitated. When this occurs I give her xanax and it does help.

My question is aren't there any other meds that can be given instead of the xanax. The xanax she takes it .025mg. Her psdoc instructed to give it to her at bedtime and during the day as needed. Yesterday I had to give it to her twice in the day. I did not give it to her at bedtime.

This morning she woke in really good spirits, which I am grateful for, with schizophenia one never knows how the person may be.

Just wondering if anyone could share their experiences on it.
