Launch of Generic Abilify

Released: 04/28/2015   By: Carl Richie, Pharmacy Director

The generic equivalent of Abilify (Aripiprazole) has just been released in multiple strengths, following FDA approval. Abilify is an antipsychotic medication. It is used to treat schizophrenia and bipolar disorder. Abilify can also be prescribed in conjunction with other medications to treat depression disorder. The initial supply is expected to be limited until multiple manufacturers enter the market.

Generic prescription drugs approved by the FDA have the same high quality and strength as brand name drugs. Generic prescription drug manufacturing and packaging sites must pass the same quality standards as those of brand name drugs.

Over the next 30 days, Carlisle Medical will be contacting physicians to inform them that the generic version Abilify is available. Our management makes a difference.
