I tried both of these. And both minocycline and NAC seemed to interact with abilify in a bad way.

How’d you get you prescription for minocycline?? Did you just ask your Pdoc?

It was for something else. I was only on it for a month and it was hell.

I am on these both currently now… I personally like the combo.
I have been on minocycline for over 6 months though so she wants to ween me off. I am not too happy.
Nac is suppost to be good to fight oxidate stress and neuroinflammation. Minocycline is suppost to be good for brain inflammation.

I did my research on theses both awhile back so i don’t remember everything i read. I thought i also read somewhere that nac is suppost to help with motivation, this i am not sure about though.

Did your psychiatrist prescribe the minocyclin??

Me??? No, it was a derm that gave me it. She had me on other stuff and wanted me to switch. So i suggested the mino(for this condition) and she thankfully said yes.
