Your own expérience about weight gain with abilify?

I think that abilify IS weight neutral on me because the first year when i used it i weighted just 5 or 6 kilograms but it was the period when i stopped to work.
I take abilify 400 maintena now but in the past i Taken differents doses like 30, 15, 5 and even 2,5 mg to be well.
And you what IS your weight gain with abilify ?.
I read also on internet that 25 percents experienced weight gain for a dose between 5 and 10 mg, 28 percents for a dose under 10 mg and just 4 or 5 percents experienced weight gain with a low dose of 3,5 mg

I have not gained weight on Abilify in fact I’ve continued to lose weight

I actually got a pretty good increase in physical strength when they put me on Abilify. They eventually had to take me off it because it made me too antsy.

What was your previous Antipsychotic ?. How have you to lose weight ?.

I was on clozapine and I was at 250 lb

Now on abilify i am 170 lb

Is it hard to Switch between clozapine and abilify ?. I read that it’s hard

And what was your weight before your Antipsychotics using ?.

I did not find it difficult it’s significantly easier to take Abilify clozapine requires blood work and is an enormously costly drug to the body is exhausting and harrowing even (imo)

I haven’t gained weight with Abilify.
