I just started it yesterday. I would like to know what was your experience with Latuda? 
I’m going to be starting Latuda in a bit as well so I’d like to know too!

Same here just started taking it only taking 40mg at the moment and still taking abilify 30mg, I am transitioning to only take Latuda… so far I don’t notice any side effects
I take 120 mg a day of Latuda its a great medication for me no side effects at all and it helps control my symptoms along with haldol

I take latuda 40mg works good for me for now. The biggest thing with latuda is restless leg syndrome and akathisia. I take ativan, cogentin and benedryl about ten minutes before i take my latuda and it seems to keep the restlessness away. I also gain about 3 lbs a month

I was on 120mg of Latuda every night.
I took it with my dinner as prescribed.
Within thirty minutes of taking it, I would vomit.
You are supposed to have it with a minimum 350 calories, I guess I wasn’t meeting that quota.
I’m back on my old pal Invega now.

oh really, that’s weird. I don’t feel nausea but I experience some anxiety in 30 minutes of taking it. I fall asleep afterwards.

Yes it was awful.
i started latuda four years ago. for about 2 years it was the only medication for me besides an anti depressant. but I kept having the dose raised after the lower dosages stop working. I was put on invega which didn’t help much. then Haldol about a year ago. Now the new pdoc is trying to take me off the latuda.

I take Latuda 120 mg at night, and when I would take it as prescribed on the bottle, at dinner I would feel awful within 30 minutes. I do better when I take it at bedtime.

I was on Latuda for a while, but I got off it. I was angry all the time when I was on it, but that was probably the effect of me coming off Geodon and Seroquel. I’ve pretty well given up on trying to find a designer drug that will somehow make me self actualized or whatever. I’m willing to settle for drugs that control my symptoms with the fewest side effects.
this is interesting… I increased my dosage too. I wonder if it wares off after some time
