Specializes in Neurology

Abilify (aripiprazole): could possibly improve concentration and memory in several clinical settings (when used for irritability in those with autism, as an add on medication in those with bipolar mania, and in those with an acute exacerbation of psychosis in schizophrenia). There has not been a long term controlled study to look at cognitive, memory issues however. It should not be used for treatment of dementia
