Anybody on this new ap? It's also an anti-d. My pdoc gave me some samples yesterday and I filled out an appl. to try to get it free from pharma co. Otherwise it's pricey at $1000.00 with no ins. The psyche Dr. in town is using it like crazy to keep people out of the hospital and it's working. My Dr. is putting everyone on it. From what I understand it is activating but not anxiety producing, calming but not sedating...but I don't know for sure.

I am on it. It is labeled to help with mania but can be used off label for depression. I have been on it about a month. I am not totally stable yet but am much better than I was before starting it. I am on 3mg now.

I was on it for awhile and didn't find it helpful.
