Indications and usage:
Abilify (Aripiprazole) is an atypical antipsychotic. The oral formulations are indicated for:
Schizophrenia.
Acute treatment of manic and mixed episodes associated with bipolar I.
Adjunctive treatment of major depressive disorder.
Irritability associated with autistic disorder.
Treatment of Tourette's disorder.
The injection is indicated for agitation associated with schizophrenia or bipolar mania.
Dosage and administration:
Testing: Prior to or when initiating Truvada test for hepatitis B virus infection. Prior to initiation and during use of Truvada, on a clinically appropriate schedule, assess serum creatinine, estimated creatinine clearance, urine glucose, and urine protein in all individuals. In individuals with chronic kidney disease, also assess serum phosphorus.
HIV-1 Screening: Screen all individuals for HIV-1 infection immediately prior to initiating Truvada for HIV-1 PrEP and at least once every 3 months while taking this medication, and upon diagnosis of any other sexually transmitted infections (STIs).
Treatment of HIV-1 Infection
Recommended dosage in adultsand pediatric patients weighing at least 35 kg: One Truvada tablet (containing 200 mg of FTCand 300 mg of TDF) once daily taken orally with or without food.
Recommended dosage in pediatric patients weighing at least 17 kg: One Truvada low-strength tablet (100 mg / 150 mg, 133 mg / 200 mg, or 167 mg / 250 mg based on body weight) once daily taken orally with or without food.
Recommended dosage in renally impaired HIV-1 infected adult patients:
- Creatinine clearance (CrCl) 30?49 mL/min: 1 tablet every 48 hours.
- CrCl below 30 mL/min or hemodialysis: Truvada is not recommended.
HIV-1 Pre-Exposure Prophylaxis (PrEP)
Recommended dosage in HIV-1 uninfected adultsand adolescents weighing at least 35 kg: One Truvada tablet (containing 200 mg of FTC and 300 mg of TDF) once daily taken orally with or without food.
Recommended dosage in renally impaired HIV-uninfected individuals: Truvada is not recommended in HIV-uninfected individuals if CrCl is below 60 mL/min.
Dosage forms and strengths:
Oral formulations of Aripiprazole (Abilify): administer once daily without regard to meals.
IM injection: wait at least 2 hours between doses. Maximum daily dose 30 mg.
Known CYP2D6 poor metabolizers: half of the usual dose.
Overdosage:
No specific information is available on the treatment of overdose with Abilify (Aripiprazole). An electrocardiogram should be obtained in case of overdosage and if QT interval prolongation is present, cardiac monitoring should be instituted. Otherwise, management of overdose should concentrate on supportive therapy, maintaining an adequate airway, oxygenation and ventilation, and management of symptoms. Close medical supervision and monitoring should continue until the patient recovers.
Charcoal: In the event of an overdose of Abilify, an early charcoal administration may be useful in partially preventing the absorption of aripiprazole. Administration of 50 g of activated charcoal, one hour after a single 15mgoral dose of Abilify, decreased the mean AUCand Cmaxof aripiprazole by 50%.
Hemodialysis: Although there is no information on the effect of hemodialysis in treating an overdose with this drug, hemodialysis is unlikely to be useful in overdose management since aripiprazole is highly bound to plasma proteins.
Contraindications:
Known hypersensitivity to Aripiprazole (Abilify).
Warnings and precautions:
Cerebrovascular adverse reactions in elderly patients with dementia-related psychosis: increased incidence of cerebrovascular adverse reactions (e.g., stroke, transient ischemic attack, including fatalities).
Neuroleptic malignant syndrome: manage with immediate discontinuation and close monitoring.
Tardive dyskinesia: discontinue if clinically appropriate.
Metabolic changes: atypical antipsychotic drugs have been associatedwith metabolic changes that include hyperglycemia/diabetes mellitus, dyslipidemia, and body weight gain.
Hyperglycemia/diabetes mellitus: monitor glucose regularly inpatients with and at risk for diabetes.
Dyslipidemia: undesirable alterations in lipid levels have beenobserved in patients treated with atypical antipsychotics.
Weight gain: weight gain has been observed with atypical antipsychotic use. Monitor weight.
Pathological gambling and other compulsive behaviors: consider dose reduction or discontinuation.
Orthostatic hypotension: monitor heart rate and blood pressure and warnpatients with known cardiovascular or cerebrovascular disease, and risk of dehydration or syncope.
Leukopenia, neutropenia, and agranulocytosis: have been reported withantipsychotics including Abilify. Patients with a history of a clinically significant low white blood cell count (WBC) or a drug-induced leukopenia/neutropenia should have their complete blood count (CBC) monitored frequently during the first few months of therapy anddiscontinuation of Aripiprazole should be considered at the first sign of aclinically significant decline in WBC in the absence of other causative factors.
Seizures/convulsions: use cautiously in patients with a history of seizuresor with conditions that lower the seizure threshold.
Potential for cognitive and motor impairment: use caution whenoperating machinery.
Suicide: the possibility of a suicide attempt is inherent in schizophrenia and bipolar disorder. Closely supervise high-risk patients.
Side effects, adverse reactions:
Commonly observed adverse reactions (incidence >= 5% and at least twice that for placebo) of aripiprazole were:
Adult patients with schizophrenia: akathisia.
Pediatric patients (13 to 17 years) with schizophrenia: extrapyramidal disorder, somnolence, and tremor.
Adult patients (monotherapy) with bipolar mania: akathisia, sedation, restlessness, tremor, and extrapyramidal disorder.

Pediatric patients (10 to 17 years) with bipolar mania: somnolence,extrapyramidal disorder, fatigue, nausea, akathisia, blurred vision, salivary hypersecretion, and dizziness.
Adult patients with major depressive disorder (adjunctive treatment to antidepressant therapy): akathisia, restlessness, insomnia, constipation, fatigue, and blurred vision.
Pediatric patients (6 to 17 years) with autistic disorder: sedation, fatigue,vomiting, somnolence, tremor, pyrexia, drooling, decreased appetite, salivary hypersecretion, extrapyramidal disorder, and lethargy.
Pediatric patients (6 to 18 years) with Tourette's disorder: sedation, somnolence, nausea, headache, nasopharyngitis, fatigue, increased appetite.
Adult patients with agitation associated with schizophrenia or bipolar mania: nausea.
