My insurance won't fill the prescription. In the past, it's been the only AP that worked for me as in it didn't have terrible side effects and it made me feel better. They say that I have to take old APs and prove that they don't work. The old APs have terrible side effects as you know. Plus they're more likely to cause weight gain.
Have you switched from Latuda from an AP that you like, and if so what AP? Have you ever had this requirement?

I do not take latuda but tell your doctor you want to discuss having her work on an appeal to your insurance company. I know this because mine played the same game I ended up taking it to my husband’s employer. yea they are demanding proof you need the medicine that you already take. But talk to your doctor. Do you know that latuda has a patient assistance program and it can be as little as 5$. Do you want me to post a link ?
