With anti psychotic medication you reduce by the next low dose available and wait at least 2 weeks before reducing to the next dose. Monitor symptoms during every dose reduction. Withdrawal from antipsychotics is not common. Not as common as antidepressants or benzos. So most people do well with that type of taper. If not, you need to get the medication formulated into a liquid and then taper less.
One study showed Caplyta to be more effective than Risperdal for schizophrenia (and it works like Zyprexa for schizophrenia as it reduces both positive psychotic symptoms and the negative symptoms of schizophrenia). Just wondering if it’s more or as effective as Zyprexa for psychosis and schizophrenia because in contrast to Zyprexa it doesn’t cause any weight gain (which is a breakthrough)-there needs to be more research and literature reviews including this new antipsychotic. Also wondering at lower doses for treatment resistant depression (i.e., after first line SSRI antidepressants like Lexapro or Zoloft fail), when would a psychiatrist choose Latuda over Caplyta and vise versa?
It depends on many factors. At this point it will most likely have to do with cost since Caplyta is still branded and may not be available for those without insurance. Even those with insurance may require other medications be tried first.
Makes sense! I don’t think many insurance plans cover Latuda yet either. Think drugs need to earn first-line or second-line status by the FDA before insurance plans start covering them. Wonder the process it takes for that so eventually Latuda and Caplyta can earn first-line status, along with the other first line antipsychotics: Seroquel (quetiapine), Zyprexa (olanzapine), Abilify (aripiprazole), Risperdal (risperidone), and Invega (paliperidone).

I just started Caplyta today and I was so nervous. Thank you for sharing this information!
You're welcome 😊
You should be nervous. You may get spastic movements for the rest of your life and have to go on Austedo or Ingrezza.
This is a very good video. It’s helpful to have the scientific facts when researching medications.
Excellent video. You are an amazing clinician.
Thank you and happy Sunday.
The shareholders of intracelluar therapies must be happy seeing their stock go up. The CEO must be happy getting his bonus.
Interesting. There are so many new medicines . I find it interview they work.
Could you please make a video on Clozapine? It's a very popular first atypical antipsychotic 😊
can you do a video about stelazine (trifluoperazine)? i take it for atypical anxiety and ocd.
Could you do video about adhd treatment with methylphenidate and risperidone combination. I would like to know about how they work together.

How do you taper off a drug that has only 3 different milligrams

You can also do every other day dosing, then every third day dosing
