Hello,
I had to switch from 7 mg Abilify to Risperdol bc I could no longer afford the $900 bottle of Abilify. My pdoc had me on 4 mg at bedtime. With that I was still groggy at noon. So, I'm taking 2 mg BEFORE 8 pm and so far no problems. We also increased my prozac from 20 to 40 mg a day.
From everything I've read weight gain is a possible side effect from alll mood stabilizers :/
I hope for both of us that it works
TnT
