Anyone know TD risks for Abilify?

Posted by med_empowered on April 24, 2008, at 13:57:07

I remember a post on here from a while ago where someone was saying her doc said the risk was high (makes sense; its a high-potency agent) for an atypical. But then I did a google search and I've seen all of maybe 2 cases, one of which involving someone with long-term prior expsoure to Zyprexa. Also, I read a case study where movements popped up, but then went away (which seems to happen a lot with the atypicals; what gives?)
I'm taking niacinamide and vitamin C in an effort to not develop TD. If I had the $$$, I'd take empowerPLUS with my meds and see if that worked out. I've heard manganese can help, too. My shrink said he'd "work with me" on the TD front, but he hasn't done an AIMS test or anything, so I'm not really sure what "work with me" means.
Sigh. I'm so afraid that my perfect med combo (Klonopin, Ambien, Abilify) will somehow combine to create serious problems over the long-haul. Weird: I've taken lots of meds, and its only now that something is actually working and I'm rebuilding my life that I actually care a whole lot about long-term consequences.
Anyway, if somebody could hit me with #s on TD risks or guess-timates they've heard from anybody in the know, I'd appreciate it.
