I believe that is quite a low dose. I was on 500mg of Amisulpride split between morning & night a couple of years ago.

Having said that, I believe lower doses are better for negative symptoms & may help any depression you have. I can't remember what dose I needed to quiet my voices somewhat but I suspect it was around 300-400mg before that happened although it varies for everyone. I seemed to remember reading 400-800mg was the recommended dose for treating positive symptoms like voices or delusions although I may be wrong.

I think considering a med change would be a good idea but as Sometimes says that is a very low dose. Why not suggest Latuda & ask about your dosage in terms of your symptoms when you next see your p-doc...

Good luck
