"i&#039;ve been taking abilify 30 mg for about 4 years now. i also take 2 antidepressants paxil 40mg and wellbutrin 300mg daily. abilify changed my life for the better. i had been on a roller-coaster of medicines taking seroquel for a few years. when i tried abilify i barely had side effects though for the first month i had excessive sweating. i have gained 70 pounds since i began taking medicines (8 years). recently i was taken off abilify to try lithium. i became severely depressed and manic. i even went to the er for suicide. the few times i&#039;ve been off my medicines i&#039;ve been hospitalized. so i say definitely yes to abilify.
