In other words, you are asking if the side effects of medication X may be reduced if you take medication Y concurrently. It depends on the nature of the side effect and the profile of medication Y.
If it is, say, dry mouth, then, most likely, not. You would experience the same duration of dry mouth as before.
If it is panic attacks, then, possibly, you would be protected from them by your AP (Abilify is an AP, technically, and not a MS, although it is used to stabilize mood).
