Head bobbing is back with Rexulti

Tweet

Rexulti is a "booster" for anti-depressants. Doctors prescribe it to help the anti-depressant to be more effective. My psychiatric NP started me at 0.5 mg and then increased it by 0.5 mg every visit until I hit the maximum dosage at 2 mg. I've been on that dosage before. . . and it caused involuntary head bobbing. I've been back at 2 mg for like 4 or 5 days now and the head bobbing has returned. I'm going to have to go back to 1.5 mg. I did fine at that dosage without this obnoxious side effect. Problem is that all of the pills I currently have are 2 mg so I would have to chip a piece off of each one to take in the morning. I think it would be easier to just get a new prescription.
