Abilify and Akathisia????

Posted by TomG on July 22, 2003, at 20:13:48

I've been on 15mg for a little over a week now. I can't tell any positive benefits, but I feel like I'm coming out of my skin and I am really uncomfortable. I think I have the akathisia that is indicated as a side effect. I've been taking Benadryl to counter act this but it seems to be taking more and more to get rid of the restlessness. Has anyone else experienced this like having the Benadryl poop on you. I heard a beta blocker would work on the akathisia. Called my doc today and he wouldn't prescribe propanolol. I want to try and stick it out. Has anyone had this akathisia and have it go away by itself. How long will this last? I thought I couldn't get anymore nuts than I already am!!!!
