on the aggregate level...I wouldn't think so, like SLS said. I mean, dosing antipsychotics is tricky. Some people respond to 1mgs Haldol, 5mgs loxapine, they're good to go. Some people are fine of 10mgs Abilify...I take 30. And other stuff, too, lol.
So...yeah, its highly variable, and there are no guarantees. I'd think this would particularly true of Abilify, since 10mgs is the usual minimum for psychotic disorders and it has that weird mechanism of action.
Sorry about your side effects. Are you taking anything else that might be combining w/ the Abilify to = these problems?
