I was due my paliperidone injection today but because of very high prolactin I’ve had to switch.
As of today i increase my aripiprazole from 5mg to 10mg. I take tablet form for a few weeks then on the 2nd of January i get the aripiprazole injection.
No more paliperidone.
So now I’m just on sertraline 200mg and aripiprazole 10mg.
Good luck on the switch @Qwerty 
Good luck @Qwerty!
gotta tell you. my life is sooooo much better since i switched to aripiprazole about 17 years ago.
i feel sooo much better on it than the other drugs.
good luck to you with it. judy
That’s 2 good medicines you got yourself on there. Hopefully you’ll do really well. Good luck.
Best of luck from me too.
Thanks. I appreciate that. I am going to start taking my medication in the morning because I saw on here that aripiprazole can maybe cause sleep problems ?
In any case…further down the line my psychiatrist may add a very low dose of qutiapine for sleep.
Cheers. I added 10mg abilify to my risperidone and I feel better than I have in years.
Wishing you well!
I´m very happy I was allowed to switch from Paliperidone to Aripriprazole. Got tons more of energy!
I hope the switch helps. Don’t be scared. Hugs
I got insomnia by that drug, be aware.
Good luck @Qwerty
