A member asked:
Need to wean off of risperdal and replace with abilify (aripiprazole). should i take both at the same time while reducing risperdal?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: I recommend a two week cross taper where you take 1/2 of your Risperdal for one week and then take 1/2 every other day for one week then stop. In the meantime, continue to take your full abilify (aripiprazole) dose. You may have some break thru symptoms and should be monitored by a physician.
