I'm on Abilify @ 20mgs/day. My former pdoc told me that the start up agitation was less common with higher doses. Something about the DA2 partial agonism causing agitation and restlessness at lower doses.
I'd say...try a Benadryl, b6 at a high dose, too. Maybe (with your doc's approval) try increasing the dose up to 5mgs to see if its more some sort of over-stimulation thing going on. OR drop it completely.
Clearly, I'm no expert--just relaying info I've been told. Good luck to you!
