ben started abilify a little over a week ago. started on 15 mg. but he was a zombie, so we decreased to 7.5 and he was much better for a few days. today he comes home from school and falls asleep - never happened before. he is also taking 900 mg. trileptal, (300 mg. 3 x a day), and zoloft 75 mg. a.m. I have been thinking of taking him off trileptal, if the abilify works, as the trileptal never really did anything for him- until he started the abilify. So I am wondering , which med is causing this sedation? Could the abilify just be kicking in and it is now, in combination with the trileptal, causing sedation? Any thoughts?
thanks,
elise
