Vraylar comes in tablet form and is taken by mouth with or without food, as directed by a doctor, typically once daily. To minimize the risk of side effects, doctors may start patients on a low dose and gradually increase it. Patients should follow their doctor’s instructions carefully and use the medication regularly to get the most benefit. Do not increase the dose or use the drug more frequently or for longer than prescribed, as this can increase the risk of side effects. Patients should tell their doctor if their condition does not improve or gets worse.
The starting dose of Vraylar varies depending on the condition being treated. For the treatment of schizophrenia or bipolar mania, the starting dose is 1.5 mg once daily. For the treatment of bipolar depression, the recommended starting dose is 1.5 mg once daily, which can be increased to 3 mg once daily after one week.
