Abilify causes Death?!
Question: Abilify causes Death.?
I've been taking abilify for over a year now and I'm finding it fine, no horrible side effects like I've had on other drugs (weight gain, acne, drowsiness etc.)
However it is a bit scary that it says in the leaflet it can cause death!
I know that it's probably a minute chance but I still find it slightly worrying.?
Anyone else on abilify have similar concerns.?
Or advice to give, even if ur not on it.?
ThanksHealth Question & Answer

I took abilify for 2 years and had a great experience with it! I wouldn't be worried about the leaflet stating it causes death. That means that during a clinical trial something went wrong and someone died in a way linked to the drug. But what they don't state is the persons age, preexisting conditions etc that may have made the person a very very poor candidate to be taking the drug in the first place. If you would have had a bad reaction to the drug (something that would result in death) it would have already happened. Keep taking the medication your fine.Health Question & Answer
yes. it worries me. it also worries me that it causes more death in older people... so what am i going to do when i get to be older and have to be on something.?
it also worries me that it causes parkinsonian symptoms. i already have fine hand tremors.
unfortunately, all of the meds in this category cause some pretty nasty side effects.
