Rexulti

[@WoofYoungFreesoul]

Idec what side effects rexulti MAY cause. I'm still gonna take it cause as someone with bipolar disorder, this is honest to God the only medicine that's really helped me and I've been on almost everything

[@ScaryRevenant]

jennifer Palumbo it’s an amazing drug

[@Just_vi2]

Any side effects? I'm bp2

[@SexyFord]

@@Just_vi2weight gain, makes you tired as well. (My experience)

[@itsmychannelbaby]

I was dx bp2 for years. Not anymore. My symptoms were caused by the medications psychiatrists put me on, one after another, since I was a child. In fact, each successive dx was caused by the previous medication. 2nd generation antipsychotics, like rexulti, "solve" the problem by killing the patient physically and spiritually. You'll never, ever get back what these medications take from you. Never. I wish the psychiatrists would think long and hard about this, from a prison cell. Exercise, eat right, avoid toxins, get good sleep. NOBODY SHOULD EVER TAKE THIS MEDICATION AS AN ADJUNCT FOR SSRI, ITS ABSOLUTLE INSANITY!

[@ChristinaGrileira]

Getting to know how much Rexulti costs in the US is shocking. In Brazil I pay less than 50 USD for a month of the medication.

[@ilaVLira]

Você ainda está em tratamento com rexulti? Está gostando?

[@ChristinaGrileira]

@@ilaVLira Eu gostei bastante, foi muito mais eficiente do que risperidona, mas tive que parar por causa do preço. Agora estou com risperidona, escitalopram e ritalina, após ter o diagnóstico te TDAH + TOC e TAG. Está sendo incrível, me sinto vivo, motivado e feliz pela primeira.

[@ilaVLira]

@@ChristinaGrileira que bom, Pedro. Não sei meu diagnóstico ainda. Talvez seja distimia com ansiedade. Comecei pela primeira vez um tratamento medicamentoso há 25 dias: 10mg de escitalopram e 50mg de quetiapina. Não sei se estou melhorando. Estou pesquisando opções. Acho que o Rexulti pode potencializar o antidepressivo.

[@ilaVLira]

@@ChristinaGrileira você teve algum efeito colateral?

[@ChristinaGrileira]

@@ilaVLira Que bom que você começou o tratamento, Ila! Minha adaptação ao escitalopram foi muito difícil, piorou muito a ansiedade, mas depois de três meses cheguei na dose adequada para mim e agora tô ótimo. Meu marido tem distimia e respondeu muito rápido ao tratamento (Venlafaxina e Bup). Desejo uma melhora rápida no seu quadro. Nunca desista. A psiquiatria é muito artesanal e é baseada em tentativa e erro, mas quando bem feita ela muda a vida da gente.

[@ScaryRevenant]

Been on this a month it’s an amazing medication however for me it is fairly sedating ( 1mg dose)

[@ScaryRevenant]

Graeme Nunes I love being sedated 👌🏻

[@jaeshasway]

Wow, my doctor gave this to me to take with Cymbalta which was prescribed for Fibromyalgia. I started getting depressed because I lost my job due to slow recovery from obstructive sleep apnea and fibromyalgia. He said that if the depression wasn’t manageable to take rexulti. He gave me a starter pack. I’m glad I saw your video before taking it.

[@sombrance]

Helped me with intrusive thoughts of suicide and self harm. First time in 12 years since I was diagnosed.

[@SurgeCess]

Help, I just just 0.5mg for the first time (prescribed by a psychiatrist) and I CANNOT stop crying! I am just in a frenzy now, I flushed the rest of the pills down the toilet, I don't know what to do, this is scary

[@timcepin3386]

How long did you take it for?

[@JohnSmith-oh5zp]

I experienced fairly significant impulse control issues while on Rexulti and needed to stop the medication. What is the underlying mechanism of this as I know it is an adverse side effect of its close cousin, abilify

[@Kris_USA90]

Not sure if you're still interested in this, but it's because of the activation that the Dopamine D2 receptor, we'll just heavily involved in pleasure seeking and enjoying activities. Abilify and Rexulti both act as Partial Agonists at this site, unlike almost every other antipsychotic which are D2 antagonists. Antagonists bind to and fully block the action at a receptor site. Agonists Will bind to and stimulate action at receptors similar to the way free floating dopamine well touch that detail receptor and give you the "feel goods". These medications have the Goldilocks Effect because they are partial agonists meaning that they can theoretically lift low dopamine levels and reduce overabundant dopamine levels. They bind to the site and in the presence of low dopamine transmission (depression), will boost dopamine activity in their own right. In high concentrations of free androgenous dopamine floating in the synapse (schizophrenia), you are still getting some activation because the medication is sitting on the receptor and causing some sort of intrinsic activity, but still blocking/reducing levels overall. All that being said, typically it tends to be very balancing for many, but for those sensitive to the acts of dopamine and dopaminergic transmission, in both control and dopaminergic transmission, impulsivity and hedonistic activity can increase. Hope that helps! :)

[@corymodzeleski7191]

I was on it for 2 years for Schizoaffective disorder. I loved it because it was the only anti-psychotic I've been on that didn't have any side effects on me. But unfortunately it stopped working after a couple years. Now I take Invega, which has it's pros and cons. Do you by chance have a video on Invega?

[@Burevestnik9M730]

It is interesting that you had a severe akathisia reaction while on Abilify and 2yrs on Rexulti no such reaction although it is supposedly the same chemical formula. What if this drug gives its specific positives only to a subset of patients (like all APs), but who would otherwise have a bad reaction on Abilify (1 in 4 patients on 15mg Abilify ends up in emergency for akathisia). Maybe only those patients are the target for Rexulti: try Abilify first, but severe reaction => try Rexulti. While on Rexulti for 2yrs, what was your LDL, HDL, Total, Triglycerides, HbA1c (ideal HbA1c level is 48mmol/mol (6.5%) or below. If you're at risk of developing type 2 diabetes, your target HbA1c level should be below 42mmol/mol (6%)) at the end of 2yr period?

This medication caused uncommon events of rage. I stopped it after about 2-4 weeks.

[@kellyjackson5693]

@Anthony Supar I experienced feelings of anger and rage on a level that was not customary to my personality while taking this medication. I responded to people around me more aggressively and just overall felt more angry than usual. Also my anger was more difficult to control. This wasn't the intended purpose for the medication so I called my doctor and stopped taking it.

[@kellyjackson5693]

@Anthony Supar In my case, it was prescribed as a mood stablizer in conjuction with an antidepressant, but it didn't work well for me at all.

[@kellyjackson5693]

@Anthony Supar It was crazy! lol It was a bad fit for me it may be different for you. Talk with your doctor right away about any concerns you have. Good luck.

I stopped it about 6 weeks ago reducing over about two months. I was on Latuda for many years then brexpiprazole for about 6 months. I started getting some blepharospasm and the was one of the reasons I went off of it. I am still getting blepharospasm. Can withdrawal from brexpiprazole cause this?
