I've taken Seroquel, Seroquel XR, and Latuda.
I wasn't a fan of Latuda. It made me too sedated. While it somewhat worked for my depression at 40mg, I needed to increase my dose to at least 60mg in order for it to be fully effective for my depression. The problem with 40mg is that it was already too sedating for me, so I actually upped it to 60mg anyway, but doing that made me WAY too sedated. Gave up on the drug.
Seriously, for some reason, I'm more sedated on Latuda than I am on Seroquel!
But anyways, Latuda is a great drug for some people (some people even call it a lifesaver), but I found it didn't help with my hypo/mania at all.
I like Seroquel XR. Regular Seroquel knocks me on my ***, but Seroquel XR is okay for me, so I'm still on it. The intense Seroquel hunger went away for me after 2-3 weeks of starting it (can't remember if it was 2 or 3 weeks).
