Yes, with your psychiatrist advise you can mix and give. Leaving one medicine asprito and giving the other may not be beneficial, sometimes defeats the purpose. Asprito also come under the brand name arip mt mouth dissolving form, which easily dissolves. Good luck.

Was it prescribed by a psychiatrist, how did you get hold of this medication, which is an atypical antipsychotic and needs to be given very carefully. If the psychiatrist has prescribed, kindly take as he may evaluated you before prescribing. All the best.

There is currently no suggestion of any link between aripiprazole use in pregnancy and birth defects in general, or heart defects specifically in the baby. Studies of over 10,000 women who used any type of antipsychotic during pregnancy also do not collectively raise alarm of a link with birth defects.

Dear lybrate-user,
as I have already answered, schizophrenia needs long term maintenance dose of tablets. Relapses are worse to treat. You have not had any relapse since you were continuously on tablets. Your doctor is reducing the tablets, its dose and to less powerful tablets like aripiprazole. Let your doctor decide how long you will be on 15 mg. Since you don't have much side effect with aripiprazole, why don't you take it till the doctor decides the maintenance dose and tablet.

Memory loss is rare with aripiprazole. Difficulty in concentration is common with adhd. This may result in difficulty in remembering things.

Aripiprazole is unlikely to cause hairfall, unless if you are on other medications which may have it as a side effect. There are local applications as well as oral tablets, but it is best to see a dermatologist before starting on specific medications.

Dear lybrate-user,
schizophrenia has both positive symptoms (hallucinations, delusions, disorganised thoughts) and negative symptoms (tiredness, lack of interest in any goal directed activity, lack of pleasure, restricted vocabulary, apathy, etc.) probably you would have become alright because of relief from positive symptoms. The negative symptoms also need treatment (amisulpride and aripiprazole). Please don't stop these medicines. Discuss with your psychiatrist. She/he may add an antidepr...more
