Sometimes, 2 AP/AAP drugs are used together. I think its fairly common in schizophrenia and schizoaffective, less so w/ bipolar I.
Anyway, over the long haul, probably not the best idea, but for short term use, I can see it being helpful. Me, I take 30mgs/Abilify and then when/if I feel agitated, I take a low dose of risperidone on top, at night. I only do that for a little while and then I stop.
