A member asked:

I have taken aripiprex 5mg for two weeks, now i am quitting it. how long will it take for my system to adjust to not being on it?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

1-2 weeks tops: You've not been on the medication for any length of time so a full washout should happen in 1-2 weeks at the most.
