Please post your Latuda/Lurasidone experiences here, positive or negative.

My experiences:

I found that I gained some weight on Latuda. It also was ineffective for my depression at lower doses. However, I could not tolerate a dose higher than the minimum 20mg, as 40mg made me too sedated and I slept for 12+ hours a night.

As far as mania goes, I did not actually get mania on Latuda! I only got depression. However, I think if I stayed on Latuda long enough (i.e., longer than a few months), I may have gotten manic.

Some people love this med, though, so don't let my experience dissuade you! Some say it's a miracle med! I just want to provide my experience so that you have an idea of possible side effects.
