My pdoc mentioned Vraylar as an antipsychotic option for me if rexulti doesn't work out. I see him on Thursday and he might decide to either increase my lamictal or switch to vraylar because I think my mood is elevated.
What is your experience with Vraylar? |

Worked great for me, switched to a different med though due to my insurance not covering vraylar since it's so new and expensive.

vraylar has a very long half life of 2-4 days, in case u frequent missing meds for some reason.
im on it now. at first it made me nauseous, but i got over it. cant really say if its helped or not though. worth noting that on 6mg coupled w 300 lamictal i broke through into a mild mania. __________________ Dx: BP1 + Substance Abuse Rx: Lamictal 400, Vraylar 6, Seroquel 50 (PRN) |

I wasn’t on it very long but no side effects. Haldol seems to be my med that helps most

This is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.|
