I’m thinking about changing APs from Invega to Amulsipride. Has anyone tried Amulsipride for their negatives, what did you think?
(it is not available in the USA) never have tried it.
I can’t really comment on the negative symptoms, as I have always countered this with a hyper-focus drive that I cannot explain. It’s starting to fail me though recently.
I have taken Amisulpride for two years. It works well on my symptoms to the point where I am the most ‘normal’ I have ever been since diagnosis.
I picked it over Clozapine, as the side effects profile of that drug was too similar to what I had on Olanzapine.
I have lost weight on Amisulpride, but I have high prolactin. Doctor made the decision that the benefits of taking it outweigh the risk. I thought that should be my decision however, but I am not going to create issues as med changes have been a painful experience for me in the past
It is! Since February!
I see it was approved for post operation nausea in USA in February.
I have taken amisulpride for seven years and it helped with negative symptoms depending on my dosage. I take my minimum dose (200mg) so I still get negatives but if I take 400mg it helps more. But not completely.
