netsavy006 Posted January 26, 2008 Share Posted January 26, 2008 I'm so glad right now because I think I've found the right mix of medications. I was taking Abilify and Cogentin before and the abilify made me severely restless and cogentin gave me chest pains. I tired Artane but that made me itch till I bled. Thus far, the stopping of cogentin, artane, and abilify and starting of zyprexa zydis seems to be helping. One thing I'd like to know though is can Zyprexa Zydis cause the same restlessness that Abilify did? In terms of dose, I was on 10mg of Abilify and right now at 5mg of Zyprexa Zydis. I know it's might end up being one of my long term meds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IHeartAAPs Posted January 27, 2008 Share Posted January 27, 2008 Any AAP (or typical antipsychotic) can cause restlessness, including the more sedating ones. You just never know until you try it. That being said, Abilify is more commonly associated with restlessness than other AAPs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
netsavy006 Posted January 31, 2008 Author Share Posted January 31, 2008 Luckily, I've not suffered restlessness on Zyprexa Zydis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
