I’m diagnosed with ADHD, depression, anxiety disorder, adjustment disorder, and chronic anger issues. After adding Bupropion SR 150 mg, I developed EPS, likely due to interaction with Aripiprazole (currently 1.25 mg). I previously had EPS at 5 mg Abilify, but not at 2 mg without Bupropion.
Currently, 1.25 mg Abilify isn’t helping with my anger/irritability, and I’m sensitive to antipsychotics overall. Would Cariprazine be a better option with lower EPS risk and better emotional control, especially alongside Bupropion?
Current meds:
• Prozac 40 mg
• Axepta 40 mg BID
• Bupropion SR 150 mg
• Aripiprazole 1.25 mg
• Depakote XR 250 mg
• Ritalin (SOS)
• L-Carnosine
• Magnesium L-Threonate
Thanks in advance!

Yes Bupropion increases the levels of aripirazole because it inhibits one CYP enzyme in liver. But you need another medicine for problems. I can't suggest any medicine based on the question.
