Generic Aripiprazole Information

Common Use

Aripiprazole is an atypical antipsychotic used to treat mental and mood disorders such as schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, and major depressive disorder (as an add-on treatment). It helps restore the balance of dopamine and serotonin in the brain. Aripiprazole can also be used to treat irritability associated with autism in children.

Dosage and Direction

Aripiprazole is usually taken once daily, with or without food, in tablet, orally disintegrating tablet, solution, or injection form. The dose is based on the condition, response to treatment, and age. Do not stop taking the medication suddenly without consulting your doctor, as symptoms may return or worsen.

Precautions

Before using aripiprazole, inform your doctor if you have a history of cardiovascular disease, seizures, diabetes, or liver problems. The drug may increase blood sugar, cholesterol, or weight, especially in adolescents. It may impair judgment or reaction time, so avoid driving or operating machinery until you know how it affects you.

Contraindications

Aripiprazole is contraindicated in patients with known hypersensitivity to the drug or its components. It should not be used in elderly patients with dementia-related psychosis due to an increased risk of death. Caution is advised in patients at risk for suicidal thoughts or behaviors.

Possible Side Effects

Common side effects include headache, anxiety, insomnia, nausea, dizziness, and restlessness. Some people may experience weight gain or tremors. Serious side effects include high blood sugar, tardive dyskinesia (involuntary movements), and neuroleptic malignant syndrome (a rare but life-threatening reaction).

Drug Interaction

Aripiprazole may interact with other medications that affect the central nervous system, such as antidepressants, anticonvulsants, and sedatives. Drugs that affect liver enzymes (like carbamazepine or ketoconazole) may change its levels in the body. Always inform your doctor about all medications and supplements you are using.

Missed Dose

If you miss a dose, take it as soon as you remember. If it is near the time of the next dose, skip the missed dose and continue with your regular schedule. Do not double the dose to catch up.

Overdose

Symptoms of overdose may include vomiting, tremors, drowsiness, and fast or irregular heartbeat. In case of overdose, seek emergency medical help. Treatment is supportive, and hospitalization may be required.

Storage

Store aripiprazole at room temperature away from light and moisture. Do not store in the bathroom. Keep the medication tightly closed and out of reach of children and pets.
