Side effect of stopping abilify (aripiprazole) cold turkey?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Depends upon illness: If it is being used to treat depression, you could go right back into it the very next day. If it is for psychosis, you might eventually rek\lapse, same with bipolar disorder. These medications should generally be tapered and never stopped without a discussion with your treatment provider.
