I was on the highest dose (6 mg) for a long time. I’ve recently tapered down in dosage, to 4.5 mg. Anyways, I like it. At least, I think it’s the most effective and least side effects. I still have breakthrough positive symptoms, and bad negatives, but this med does help, IMO. ---

I have taken it on various doses and for a quite some time. It can cause akathisia but other side-effects are pretty mild I find. Have not noticed much help regarding negative symptoms, but could be individual effect at play there. ---

Vraylar pushed me into one of the worst manic episodes I ever had. So if you have any manic episodes in your past or if you have SZA bipolar type just be careful ---
