Hi.

> Hi, my pdoc gave me a coupon for a starter pack of Vraylar. I'm currently taking Abilify 2-4 mg but still have unresolved symptoms of depression. My diagnosis is MDD/treatment resistant. I am at my wit's end with trying so many medications and achieving minimal response. Is anyone in this forum taking or have taken Vraylar? If so, how is it going? I'm also undergoing ECT and am yet to find relief. It's like nothing works and I'm getting so tired of this suffering.

I wanted to try something to replace Abilify for lack of robust effect. My depression became much worse on Vraylar (cariprazine). I have bipolar depression, not MDD.

Someone else reported doing very well on Vraylar. Be cognizant of the fact that Vraylar has an extrememly long half-life (1-3 weeks), and it takes at least a week for levels to stabilize after a dosage increase.

I am going to ask my doctor about Reluxti (brexpiprazole).
