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.

Dear lybrate-user, please discuss your problem with your treating psychiatrist. There could be many reasons for refusing sex. Your wife might be in depression where she does not enjoy sex.
