Hey guys!

Just got put on 200mg a day of Solian.

Anyone care to share their experiences with this drug? Side effects, effectiveness, does it make you drowsy or the opposite?

Any info would be much appreciated!

Hmm Ive never even heard of it. Perhaps its a different name where I live. Oh! I looked it up and it said its not approved for use in the US yet.

I hope it works well for you! Let us know how it goes!

The only anti psychotic that improved my mood. When I was still ordering from Dr. Internet. In low doses it boosts dopamine transmission so it is kind of a anti depressant

I did not know that. That probably explains the lack of replies. I'll update how I get on with here!

That's good to hear, my mood can be quite low at times but I'm not depressed, just low.

it's really helped me, im on 300 mg a day 150 in the morning and 150 at night, went from rispiridol to abilify and i had trouble with both and this has helped me a lot, no side effects so far (been on it like 8 months now) never seen anyone else mention it, supposed to be an older drug but i find it works really well

Thanks Turtleboy! Could be more popular in Ireland so as there's not much information on it on these boards. My psychiatrist suggested Abilify first but I had a bad reaction to that when I was a teen. This was the alternative. Hope it helps me as much as it has you!

I know it's not used in the US or Canada, but more popular in Italy, the UK and other parts of Europe. Other than that, I don't know much about it. Sorry.
