Abilify Precautions

Generally, precautionary measures apply to:

  • Medical history of the patient, specifically to any other serious disease the patient may have.

Your doctor must know every single aspect of your entire medical history; for some diseases, e.g. diabetes, details on overall family history should be given as well. If you have any of the following conditions and problems, no therapy with Abilify is possible: heart and blood vessels disorders (e.g., coronary artery disease and low blood pressure), cerebrovascular disease, stroke, nervous system disorders (e.g. Alzheimer's disease, dementia, seizures, and neuroleptic malignant syndrome (NMS), diabetes, obesity and some others like swallowing problems) that may worsen.

  • Overall responsiveness to treatment due to age- or pregnancy-related peculiarities.

Therapy with Abilify requires special attention when it comes to such vulnerable categories as expectant mothers, children and the elderly. Since these categories are more sensitive to any adverse reaction that may occur, the drug should be used if it is really needed. On the whole, advisability of the treatment with the drug will depend on whether the benefits outweigh the risks. If those do, constant monitoring and regular checkups are a must.

  • Some allergic reactions caused by inactive ingredients, which, however, require due attention.

Both the active ingredient of the medication and inactive ones may cause allergic reactions in patients susceptible. If there is a risk that any undesired effect may occur, talk to your doctor beforehand to prevent complications. Thus, potential side effects can be caused by e.g. propylene glycol (cutaneous reactions like systemic contact dermatitis) or lactose monohydrate (sugar) contained in liquid forms of the medication, which is important to consider if you have diabetes, or by hydroxypropyl cellulose that often causes this or that eye discomfort.

  • Peculiarities of intake this or that way connected with the patient's lifestyle, work and regimen.

On the whole, no alcoholic beverages are allowed when you undergo a course of treatment with Abilify. Additionally, it is strictly recommended to avoid performing or being involved in any activity that requires clear vision and attentiveness like driving or using machinery. Finally, you must avoid overheating and dehydration as the drug can make you sweat less. Thus, no working or exercising in hot weather is allowed, but instead more fluids intake is strongly recommended.
