Has anyone here been prescribed Latuda? I just came back from my first appointment with a new psych nurse and she switched me from seroquel to Latuda. She said there is a lower risk of weight gain with it and it can be taken if you become pregnant. has anyone found this drug helpful? Any bad experiences or things I should watch out for?
