Does anyone who takes aripiprazole for tics notice any changes? I’ve been taking it for a while and nothing seems to have changed

      I took it for tics and it worked for a very short time. Maybe about a week or so? It also made my anxiety spike, which made my tics worse in the long run. I recommend taking it for at least a month (and don't miss a dose), then talk to your doctor if it still doesn't do anything after that. My experience with tic medications is that the side effects will get gradually worse , so it's not worthwhile to keep taking it if it's not even doing anything for your tics.
