I asked for an appointment for medication review to lower Abilify dose from 10mg to 5mg

The last time I saw a nurse was a few months ago. But the last time I saw a consultant was over a year and a half ago. I asked for a mental health and medication review and asked to see the same consultant I saw last. Hopefully he is still working there.

I want to go from 10mg Abilify to 5mg. I don’t want to be on more meds than I need to be on.

Is the abilify causing any side effects? I’m just curious because I’m getting on something similar.

Other than the gradual weight gain over the years I haven’t experienced many.

Thats interesting. I’m on abilify 10mg as well. I’ve been thinking of reducing too but for anhedonia purposes. Unsure if it will have impact.

It’s worked for me for my psychosis before but every time I’ve tried to reduce it it’s affected my moods. Not massively but I noticed it even when others didn’t.

Moving to Medications.

I know what you mean @Ish
I want to reduce my risperidone dose from 3mg to 2mg.

I think I’ll manage
