Not a problem but...: It should not be difficult to get off Aiblify 1 mg without any physiological withdrawal symptoms. BUT the more important question is why were you taking it in the first place and if it were helpful to you, might you not get a return of your original symptoms. Frequently we do trials off a particular medication but this should be deliberate plan worked out with your doctor .

It depends: Upon why you’re taking it, and why you need to wean off of it. Tapering off 1 MG abilify (aripiprazole) should not pose a problem, provided there is an alternative medication that can take its place that will control your symptoms if needed, and with minimal side effects. Please discuss with your prescriber. Good luck!
