Latuda and Akathisias after years

I’ve been taking Latuda for a year and a half now and this morning, much to my dismay, I am experiencing Akathisias for the first time since taking it. What are the chances that it’s a one off? I am rather worried because I’ve had Akathisias on Abilify and it was horrible.

I was on it for about 18 months before it did this to me

Had to switch meds

If I may ask, what was your dosage of Latuda?

It was around 140mg

Stayed at c70mg for most of the time but they raised it

It sure if that was the cause or not

Have you tried taking benztropine.

This has helped me with akathisia, I was on Latuda and Geodon and 2mg benztropine made it bearable.

My pdoc put me on a beta blocker and Gabapentin for restlessness. Works good.
