Is shaking hands and arms a normal side-effect of Abilify (aripiprazole)?

I take 15mg every morning. I don't get any other side-effects except shaking and insomnia.

Yes, it's called akithisia.

This could be a side effect of Abilify. It can be very nicely treated by Beta - Blocker drug like Propranolol. For sleeplessness you can try Ambien 5 mg at bed time.
