I had shopping addiction on Abilify. FDA warned about it and its even written in the med package. But thers no warnings for Vraylar eventhough its a partial dopamine just like Abilify. I hope Vraylar doesn’t cause the same problems as Abilify as I want to try. It was approved here in June so it will soon be available.

I’ve been on Vraylar for 6 or 7 months now and I don’t think my spending habits are particularly problematic. I occasionally buy things I don’t really need but it doesn’t outpace my income and it’s nowhere near as bad as what I buy when I’m manic. I’ve also been on Abilify and my spending habits were a lot worse then, but I can’t be sure if it was the meds or the illness causing it.
