Latuda worked great for me but after being on 120mg for a few months I started lactating. So my pdoc has been slowly weaning me off it.

For me it was a nightmare because of the akasthesia I get. Its supposed to be the one least likely to cause it but it did for me. I couldn't sit or stay still even with propranolo and cogentin at the same time. That is really the only complaint I have. I am on 80mg nightly.

I love it. I was soooo bad off before it, and now I'm relatively 'normal.'

I loved it, was at 60mg when I had been on it for a year I decided to see if I could remain stable with only my mood stabilizer. It worked great for the psych symptoms and got me out of a very bad mixed episode. So far so good. I'd be very willing to go back on it if I needed to, just don't like the idea of taking a lot of meds long term. My Pdoc is willing as long as I keep it on hand and take it if I need it.

Hello DelusionsDaily, I have been on Latuda for almost three months now (120 mg) and it does not seem to be helping much in stabilizing my mood. I have been depressed for 2 and a half months now and it is getting worse. I hope it works out for you though
