things which are not there, suspiciousness, mistaken beliefs,
incoherent speech and behaviour
and emotional flatness. People with this condition may also feel
depressed, guilty, anxious or

Aripiprazole DOC is used to treat adults and adolescents aged 13 years
and older who suffer
from a condition with symptoms such as feeling "high", having
excessive amounts of energy,
needing much less sleep than usual, talking very quickly with racing
ideas and sometimes
severe irritability. In adults it also prevents this condition from
returning in patients who have
responded to the treatment with Aripiprazole DOC.
