My Dr Wants To Start Me On Abilify & Lamictal For My Bipolar Disorder. Anyone Here On Those Medications?.
I had to message my fertility dr to see if its okay first but i wanted to see if anyone else takes them and if they help while I'm waiting for a response?
@A MyEndometriosisTeam Member thankyou for taking the time to reply to this! I'm not on any kind of birth control at all . My fertility Dr cleared me to take these so I talk to the physcatrist today and let her know. I'm honestly ready to feel some kind of normalcy. I pray it helps. I know it'll take some time to get right and it may not even be the medication for me but I'm ready to start trying to find the right ones for me. One of my supervisors is actually taking abilify and she said it helps but she's not on lamictal so rhankyou! I know it effects everyone differently and I won't know until I'm on them but atleast I have something to go off of. I've also been looking online to see other people's experiences with them too. I know I can't control endometriosis but I'm so ready for my brain and mental health anxiety and panic attacks and depression to be under control. So im a little excited to begin this journey.
I used to on Lamictal and there were no problems but Abilify not so sure of. If you end up on hormonal birth control they both can interfere with each other.
If you're on other meds (or plan to be) you can check interactions here:

Or, at least talk to the pharmacist bc doctors are often a little ignorant or downplay side effects and interactions.
