I just finished talking with my psychiatrist and when I asked her about possibly raising the Abilify dose or eventually switching from Risperdal to Abilify, she was dead set against it.
She emphatically said No.
She wants me to continue with 4mg of Risperdal as my base medication and she wants me to continue taking the 2mg of Abilify as an add on only.
She feels that Abilify would agitate me too much at the higher doses.
She’s keeping me on the 25mg of Lamictal as is.
Depakote remains unchanged as well.
Oh well, I at least tried.
I trust her judgement
