The other medication I tried was seroquil. But it's been some time ago. I've gained a ton of weight on Rexulti. It makes me so hungry my stomach hurts. The side effect does wear off. But unfortunately it's only after I have gained the weight. Then I stay at that weight until the dose changes. Luckily I think we are at the highest we can go. Stupid med has messed up my life in some ways. In other ways it has made me more functional.
