NullChamber Posted October 2, 2010 Share Posted October 2, 2010 i may be switching over to abilify which iv taken before, because of the weight gain, and negative/cogntive symptoms from the invega i'm on. thing is i know akathisia will be a problem, so if possible, what meds that are anti akathisia are least likely to cause side effects that significantly interfere with day-to-day functioning, such as memory/intellectual impairment.. i attend college so yea. i'm pretty sure that with the akathisia i'll need more than propranolol (despite a possible dose increase) and a benzo.

saveyoursanity Posted October 4, 2010 Share Posted October 4, 2010 Can you titrate up very slowly on the Abilify? I really think that's what staved off the akathisia for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
