How Can severe Headache Along With Insomnia Be Treated?

I started on 2mg of abilify and had no side effects. once I got up to 5mg I got severe headaches, tightness in throat and some insomnia. other than that this stops my worry and takes away my depression. I also take Effexor 225 mg daily and lomortigine 150. what do you recommend knowing I need the abilify?

Hi,

It can be due to conditions like cluster headache or tension headache. As a first line management you can take analgesics like Aceclofenac or Tramadol for pain relief. If symptoms persists better to consult a neurologist and get evaluated.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
