How deadly do you think it is to combine high doses of alcohol (like crawling up a wall) with 6 mg of cariprazine? I know these substances potentiate each other, but how? Does an alcoholic coma begin earlier, is it easier to achieve, or can breathing stop before a coma sets in? Or does cariprazine not pose a significant risk of death? Thank

Alcohol consumption should be avoided while using cariprazine. Alcohol can increase the sedative effects of the drug, which increases the risk of side effects such as drowsiness, dizziness, coordination problems and memory disorders. You may also get drunk faster with smaller doses of alcohol, which poses a risk of poisoning if you consume larger amounts. There is no specific information on the precise doses that cause poisoning - alcohol tolerance is an individual matter. Patients suffering from disorders such as schizophrenia should avoid alcohol altogether, due to the risk of worsening the symptoms of the disease (episodes of mania, depression, etc.).
