Hi. I already took aripiprazole. It caused me distonia (oculogyric crises). So we changed the AP.
This AP i’m taking also give me oculogyric crises. So my pdoc suggested i will take aripripazole again.
Do you take “abilify, aripripazole”? any of you have experienced “oculogyric crises”?
I’ve never heard this word what’s it mean. I’m on abilify 10 mg
I want ti take abilify 5mg (one pill in the morning). I took it for a long time but i have this side effect once a week and obviously i don’t like and it’s scary. Also, i think abilify it’s the best drug for me.
Oh no I don’t have that I wouldn’t even know how to do it. I remember kids doing that in school kinda as kids as a joke I never did. But no I don’t get this from meds. On 20 mg I had much more side effects. On 10 mg not much side effects at all and it’s effective right for me.
I can’t imagine anything will be different this time 
I’m jealous… if i had not this side effect i wouldn’t remember my psychotic disorder
I just stopped Abilify because it wasn’t working. I did not have problems with my eyes except for some blurry vision the first week on it. I also had Akathisia but Cogentin treated it perfectly
Yeah…But invega (is what i’m taking now) has the same side effect (oculogyric crises)
No, never had that side effect. On 10 mg Abilify/aripiprazole.
Sorry that’s happening to you- must be scary and uncomfortable 
Thank you. It is scary and very uncomfortable. 
it’s so strange the majority of you don’t have and don’t even know this side effect!!
They say muscle stiffness is pretty common with Abilify but personally I have never dealt with something like oculogyric crisis. I hope that this time abilify will work for you without the eye movements. Good luck
Has your doc ever mentioned rexulti?
It’s similar to abilify but without alot of the side effects.
There is not Brexpiprazole in portugal. I didn’t know that AP
Hopefully it gets there, it is a wonder med for me so far.
I’m praying for that med to come to Portugal 
I’m also on aripiprazole, I had only one side effect, tardive dyskinesia (I used to give a lot of French kisses in the street to no one 
) but my doc prescribe a low dose of risperidone to end it 0.5 mg and I never French kiss anymore on the street to nobody.
I just hope that med comes before it’s a generic
Quanto tempo aguentaste esse efeito? Eu estou há mais de um ano com oculogiras uma vez por semana mas gostava muito de corrigir este problema. Aliás, eu adoraria que a doutora decidisse pôr fim ao tratamento. É uma possibilidade…
