Can abilify cause vomiting?

I just started on Abilify last week, and I've been feeling quite nauseous since then. I've also vomited a couple of times. I'm wondering if this is a side effect. Can Abilify cause vomiting?

Yes, absolutely. I recently started Abilify and had terrible nausea and vomited twice in the first week. My doctor told me it's quite common when your body is adjusting, and taking it with food really helped me get over it.

Honestly, I was already losing sleep and then this medicine made me feel like throwing up my dinner too. It's a real struggle! Taking it right before bed instead of morning helped me sleep through the worst of the nausea, but do ask your doc first.

Nausea and vomiting are common side effects of Abilify. I found that taking a gentle, slow walk in the fresh air after meals helped settle my stomach. Just don't push yourself too hard if you are feeling very weak.

Yes, vomiting and nausea are known side effects when starting Abilify. Definitely let your doctor know if it continues.

Vomiting can happen, especially in the first few days of this medicine. Try taking it exactly at the same time every day, and never on an empty stomach. If the vomiting is severe, ask your doctor if they can prescribe an anti-vomiting tablet for a few days.

It is very tough when a medicine makes you feel sick like this. Try sipping on some light ginger tea or sucking on a piece of lemon to calm your stomach. But please make sure you inform your doctor if you cannot keep food or water down.
