1 Why You Need Anti-Inflammatory Foods. Inflammation is your immune system's reaction to irritation, injury, or infection. It's a normal response (and actually a good thing), and it's a natural part of healing. But it's possible that chronic inflammation could have a negative impact on your body and your health.
Akathisia typically occurs within a few days of starting a new medication, or within a few days of the dosage being increased. In Jill's case, the akathisia occurred two months after taking Cipro. Thus, some might conclude that Cipro could not be the cause.
From what I know, Abilify has to be taken every day. But if you need relief of akathisia there are medications out there that can help. There's Cogentin, Artane, Benadryl, Amantadine, and Inderal. Hope this helps.
