Does anyone have experience taking Emsam 6mg. with Abiify low dose? I was thinking Abilify would be a good mood stabilizer to add to my Emsam.

I think you should be able to as you can take abilfy with nardil. Also google drug checker and check it out. Phillipa

Hi Sheila, I took Abilify with Emsam 6, starting at 2.5 mg and increasing to 10 mg. The effects were not all that great overall. My pdoc wanted to go higher in the dosage but I was reluctant since I know about the SE's of tardive dyskinesia and was too scared of that. I probably only took it for a few weeks and ended upstopping it and switching to nardil.
Now my pdoc says he may want to try Abilify again with Nardil. NOt ready for that yet, I just started nortriptylinne with nardil and haven't gotten to a point where I'm ready to add something else.
It's worth a try though, it may work for you.
