Sorry u had to experience that.

I've never been on it....I would call your doc and ask if it can be reordered in a regular tab ...It won't do you much good like this... Most meds can be ordered in more then on form... Big hug...x

Wow, sounds like something they use to torture people with to get them to tell secrets. It's strange the manufacturer couldn't put something in it to make it more tolerable.

You're right it is absolutely disgusting. I took it orally taking great care not to taste it at all because like you i could not take it sublingually . I talked to the pharmacist and he said that this means that your body takes in a little less of the drug because your stomach acids absorb them instead of them going straight into the bloodstream under the tongue. pdoc said this was fine. i am off it now though because it is notorious for weight gain.

I believe in america you can get black cherry flavoured ones? we can't get them here. it is worth a try.

The taste is awful. They say take it sublingually and eat something afterwards. Saphris is the only APSCH that ever worked on me, but YES it tastes HORRIBLE. Hugs.

As well, Saphris is very expensive.

well i called my psych ( i am on medicaid and its prevents my primary from treating me for anything other than general illness..) the girl i normally see wasn't in, the nurse on the phone said she consulted another provider who works there and all they said was make another appointment. i am SICK of appointments. i am SICK of medicine that i can't tolerate or has no effect. It has been almost a year (2 months shy) and i am just getting way, way worse. i am now having spasms and involuntary twitches 24/7 and all over my body it is incessant and insanely irritating. i was prescribed ativan this last go-round and normally it would have made a huge difference but now has no effect.

i must have absorbed some of the medication because i feel completely depressed today. i was going on a good 5 months of being manic. i have spent all day crying and lying down and doing everything i can to stay away from my bathroom where the razors are. i don't even do drugs but the way i feel today is like if someone shoved cocain in my face i would probably do it all. i feel horrible.
