Wish me luck for the changeover period
Good luck with whatever you discuss with your doc.
Think I want to try latuda
i tried latuda, it literally turned off my brain, but everyone is different. some people gain a lot of weight on it.
Hope it goes well for you @anon20613941.
Latuda and Risperdal made me gain 80 lbs. Risperdal was probably most responsible for it though.
Good luck @anon20613941 I hope it will go well the med change
Good for you, @anon20613941. And good luck!
Good luck! Latuda has been fab for me in terms of weight
Good luck @anon20613941, I hope you two find a good solution for the weight…I’ve heard good things about geodon and weight, but if u are in the UK (?) they don’t do it.
Yeah am in the uk
Ok then also Ive heard abilify is meant to be weight neutral but Im just warning you its not the case necessarily…it wasnt for me. Gives me intense food cravings is what I mean
I have problems with impulsivity so reckon I will stay away from abilify.
another option is haldol, its very cheap
ive gained alot on olanzapine, but its the only med that keeps me from going insane, ive switched to orally disintegrating olanzapine because i read it might not affect appetite as much, been on it for almost 2 weeks havent noticed a difference but i know even when i quit olanzapine i was still hungry for like a month, i hope i notice a difference by the time i go back to my pdoc in may
Vraylar is working for me. I’ve only been on it for less than a month but I’m very stable and it’s not supposed to make me gain weight. So far no weight gain. Could be an option for you. Good luck to you!
