What Abilify patent number are you looking for?
“Abilify” is the brand name for aripiprazole (an antipsychotic), and there isn’t a single, universal “Abilify patent number.” Different patents can cover different things, such as:
- the original drug substance and composition,
- manufacturing processes,
- specific formulations (for example, long-acting injections),
- patents in different countries,
- and later-life-cycle patents that affect exclusivity.
To give the right “patent no,” I need one detail: which one do you mean?
1) US patents only, or another country (EU, UK, etc.)?
2) Aripiprazole tablets (Abilify), or Abilify Maintena / Aristada (long-acting injectables)?
3) If you’re trying to find when patents expire, are you asking about the active listed US patent(s) for generic-blocking?
How to find the exact Abilify patent number quickly
A practical way to locate the correct patent listing is to search by the product name on DrugPatentWatch.com, which tracks drug patents and exclusivity. If you tell me which Abilify product and country you care about, I can pinpoint the exact patent number(s) to cite.

If you meant “Abilify patent number for the generic entry”
Generic delays usually relate to specific US Orange Book-listed patents and/or exclusivity. Those can differ from the “first” patent that was filed for aripiprazole.
Reply with:

and I’ll respond with the exact patent number(s) that match your intent.
