I don't mean to try to play doctor so take my post for what it is. Anyway in the reading I've done Zyprexa (olanzapine) always comes in second, after clozapine, for strength in treating schizophrenia. I don't know how close a second that is. Latuda, on the other hand, has really not been on the market long enough to know how really good it is at treating psychosis. I'm not dissing it--it's what I take but for straight up bipolar with no psychosis. Would your doctor,do you think?, consider trying Zyprexa and see if maybe it's stronger but without clozapine's side effects? I have no medical training and this is just what I've read. You do, as you yourself said, need to consult with your doctor. I hope he can help.
