A member asked:

What are the consequences of taking too many abilify pills? a friend took 15 and i am wondering how to help her?

Call the poison control center to get immediate help and call her prescribing physician or psychiatrist for instructions. I assume abilify has been prescribed for manic depression or bipolar condition. Can you tell whether this was a suicidal attempt rather than her impulsive!y acting out? This information should help her attending physician make a decision regarding her disposition at this time.

Ability is prescribed in wide range of dosage usually from 2-30 mg, hence it is important to know what mg pill did your friend take. Usual effect of high dose are sedation and unusual motor effects. In 2009 study published consisted of 286 cases of overdose, none was life threatening. However it is a medication with significant effects,so if any sign of hemodynamic instability, please go to ED.
