do you respond to lower doses at all? it seems some people have noted no weight gain at the lower doses. (possibly that's where the H1 affinity becomes truly negligable, and i have a feeling 5-HT1A affinity is more important to aripiprazole's effect than we usually assume, which for example doesn't seem to decline in 'occupancy' from 30-10mg. i know occupancy is hard to interpret with 5-HT1A, and 10mg isn't a true low dose, but you might figure there should at least be a trend showing decline.)
i want to try 1mg, but i don't know how to get it.
i live in ottawa. it seems 'approved', yet no pharmacies have it. i'm not taking the october 1st date very seriously, since they have declared other dates for full commercial launch, it seems; as if it's just a date to keep shareholders happy, but i don't know. i have a feeling they are trying to stick it out until the conservative government figures they can get away with saying "yes BMS, you don't have to worry about this government respecting regulations, you are fully entitled to sell a drug to our schizophrenic population for 15+ dollars a pill."
again, i don't know. i am hoping barr/teva somehow get the rights to make a generic ahead of time, they are apparently trying to use some special legal route to potentially accomplish this.
i was going to go to NYC (surprisingly the most straightforward travel route into the US for me, since i have lots of trips to montreal left on my greyhound pass) to fill my rx today, but i can barely do anything.
