My pdoc got really excited about Rexulti (she's a pharmacist besides a pdoc so pays a lot of attention to how meds work).

Instead of just being a slighty modified Abilify when they started making Rexulti they asked what they wanted Abilify to do that it did not do already and then they made a drug that did that. So it is related to Abilify but also is a new drug, more than Invega say.

So problems with abilify (I had bad ones) don't negate the chances Rexulti will work which is why we were really hoping I could try it.
