Hi why98. That is such a pity! The only idea I can suggest is to try appealing to the pharmaceutical company directly. You could consider telling them you were grateful about how well it works (emphasize how others are hard to tolerate and don't work as well, making your mood stability harder to maintain), but your insurance company is a barrier to your continued use of it. You could ask them if there is a way for you to afford it without the insurance. It's possible they might (not guaranteed) respond in a helpful way. I know that many pharmaceutical companies do help. Not that they are so charitable in spirit, but it helps with marketing and PR, and for people to stick with brand meds. This may sound cold, but...yea, it's reality. I used to work for a major pharmaceutical company.

Also, I just googled it, and it looks like there will be a generic form of Latuda available sometime in 2023 (or so). That could help with affordability. Or might convince your insurance company to cover...the generic form. I can say there is absolutely nothing wrong with genetic forms, and I'm supremely grateful that all of my meds have been generics for a while. With only the rarest exceptions, generics are equal to brands, except for the price.
