Aripiprazole, sold under the brand name Abilify, among others, is an atypical antipsychotic[14] primarily used in the treatment of schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, and irritability associated with autism spectrum disorder;[14] other uses include as an add-on treatment for major depressive disorder and tic disorders.[14] Aripiprazole is taken by mouth or via injection into a muscle.[14]
Common side effects include restlessness, insomnia, transient weight gain, nausea, vomiting, constipation, dizziness, and mild sedation.[14] Serious side effects may include neuroleptic malignant syndrome, tardive dyskinesia, and anaphylaxis.[14] It is not recommended for older people with dementia-related psychosis due to an increased risk of death.[14] In pregnancy, there is evidence of possible harm to the fetus.[14][15] It is not recommended in women who are breastfeeding.[14] It has not been very well studied in people younger than 18 years old.[14]
Aripiprazole was approved for medical use in the United States in 2002.[14] It is available as a generic medication.[16] In 2022, it was the 106th most commonly prescribed medication in the United States, with more than 6 million prescriptions.[17][18] It is on the World Health Organization's List of Essential Medicines.[19]
