Sophia85 Posted October 9, 2006 Share Posted October 9, 2006 Can you ask your pdoc for samples to get you through until you have money again? There is also a site called www.needymeds.com that can hook you up with patient assistance programs to help you get your meds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lilie Posted October 9, 2006 Share Posted October 9, 2006 call him and tell him it's an EMERGENCY and to call you back. if he doesn't start looking in the book to change doctors but if the psychosis increases you're gonna probably need a trip to the er. lilie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Velvet Elvis Posted October 9, 2006 Share Posted October 9, 2006 Often a pharmacy will front you a few days worth in times like this too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cetkat Posted October 10, 2006 Share Posted October 10, 2006 how long does it take for Abilify to leave your body? because I have been without Abilify 5mg for 6 days and I feel like I am starting to experance psychosis. Glad you got your pills. For future reference: I just went off Ablifiy with 5 mg one night, to 2.5 mg the second, then nothing. I would imagine it depends on how long you've been on it too, but for me it was 3 1/2 days for it to completely leave my system. My pharmacist said it shouldn't take longer than 3 days.. YMMV. It's not surprising that your symptoms returned and/or you got side effects from being off it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
