Members discussed their experiences with Abilify and tremors, with many sharing that they did develop shaking, particularly in the hands or face, while a few reported no tremors at all after years of use. Several members noted that side effects varied widely, with one finding that switching from pills to the injection reduced their tremors, and another managing them with Benztropine prescribed by their doctor. A recurring theme was the importance of talking to your doctor about any side effects, since each person responds to the medication differently.

I have been on Abilify for many years now; I take the injection instead of the pills. I have to use Benztropine for the tremors & it helps a lot.

I am on the lowest dose and have been taking it maybe 3 months. I sometimes can't tell if it's too much caffeine, not eating enough or the ability. Mine in the right hand too. I've heard it can be permanent. Any countermeasures you know of?

I take Abilify 10 mg right now. I have developed tremors in my right hand, but I'm not sure if they're related to the Abilify or the other anti-depressants I've been on over the past 10-13 years.
