Answers:
Dosages of medication are individualistic, just as which antidepressant works best for which person is individualistic!. I take 5 mg of Abilify for depression, along with other medications, albeit not an MAOI!. Your doctor has to look at what other meds you take, possible drug interactions, side effects, and other factors!. So, finding the "best" dose for you is going to be done by talking to your doctor who knows you and can decide what will work best with your other meds, the possible drug interactions, etc!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
There isn't a universal best dose that works for everyone!. Each person reacts differently to Abilify, so each person has to be looked at on a case by case basis!. If, for example, you are having agitation problems with Abilify they will keep the dose low!. Sometimes when you go too high on Abilify it can start to bring out visual hallucinations because it stimulates dopamine and they will have to back down on the dose!. You need to work with your doctor to figure out what dose is right for you!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
I take 10mg Abilify for depression and this dose helps!. I read that this is the most therapeutic dose of Abilify for depression!. I would consult my doctor!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
