I tried Latuda when it was new. I don't remember what was bad about it but it was very bad. I know this because my pdoc let me quit it after a few weeks and usually she'd encourage me to try longer b/c so few meds work for me we can't "waste" ones that might.

But then a funny thing happened. I was very ill and there wasn't an IOP near me. So I wound up in a NAMI peer to peer class and there were a bunch of people who would say "I've just started this new drug and I feel SO much better". There must have been 4 in the class of maybe 20-25. And all of them were on Latuda.

So I think it can work very, very well. I hope it does for you.
