Is Vraylar the same as Abilify?

No, Vraylar (cariprazine) is not the same as Abilify (aripiprazole). Both medications are atypical antipsychotics that can treat schizophrenia, bipolar I disorder, and depression. But Abilify can also treat Tourette syndrome in children and help reduce irritability associated with autism in children. And while both medications work well for manic or mixed episodes for bipolar I disorder, Vraylar is also approved to help with depressive episodes. Both medications come as oral pills. But Abilify has unique dosage forms to prevent missed doses: a long-acting injection and a trackable oral tablet. View original source
