Is there anything similar to abilify?
Yes...Zyprexa (Olanzapine). The bigest problem with it is weight gain. --------------- It depends on what you are taking it for. Abilify is prescribed for schizophrenia, bipolar mania, and recently it has been marketed for depression. From experience I do not think the feeling produced is in any way similar to zyprexa. Abilify is a partial D2 agonist and zyprexa is a potent D2 antagonist. From experience abilify = no appetite and akathisia zyprexa= sedation weight gain I have been told that the new antipsychotic saphris is very similar to abilify. It looks promising but there is a very high rate of extrapyramidal symptoms (about 20%)

Can Lexapro and abilify be taken with zyprexa?
I strongly suggestt hat you do not take Zyprexa. I took it and had HORRIBLE side effects. I am sure it can be different for some but two of my friends were on it and we all experienced severe weight gain (20 lbs in 2 weeks) and extreeme fatigue. I took Lexapro and Zyprexa together along with Colonipin. Not a great mix. Make sure you check with your Dr before taking anything. Medication can be very dangerous if not taken properly
