I have a 10 year old son who has been diagnoised with oppositional defiant disorder He was put on 5mg of abilify and 27mg of concerta per day. My question is could either one of these medications or the combination of both cause halusinations, paranoria, and sleeplessness and extreme nightmares?
Hi, The symptoms you have described are unlikely to be due to Abilify but may be related to Concert. Concert is a stimulant and can cause sleeplessness. It can also cause visual disturbances, hallucinations and unusual behavior. Please discuss with his doctor regarding the change in his behavior, and I am sure his doctor will suggest a change in his prescription if the symptoms appear to be Chat Doctor. Best wishes.
