    I’ve taken all of them, vraylar, rexulti, and now Latuda. This one by far has been the best. I am 2 months into it. So far my side affects have been really minimal to none, maybe some drowsiness from it but I think that has to do more with my sleeping patterns. Overall I am much more stable and everyone around me says they think I’m the most stable I’ve ever been. No more constant negative thoughts or compulsions like I had on vraylar. Very calm. Would recommend

    This is the 5th medication I tried for bipolar disorder. It's had the least amount of side effects out of the meds I've tried. And it's done a great job with my anxiety disorder. I haven't had a lot of break through mania on this med compared to when I was on rispiradone. And I am not as sedated as I was on seraquil. I have had nausea on latuda. But it has gotten better with time. And it's been a little more sedating than I would like. Rispiradone was less sedating for me. And it has caused me to have my menstrual cycle less frequently than normal.
    Medications for bipolar disorder seem to all have some negative side effects. But this has been the most tolerable medication for me so far. And I'm losing some of the weight I gained on seraquil and rispiradone. I've also tried abilify, which caused me tremors. I do a lot of art. So having unsteady hands is a no go for me. And I've tried Lithium, which caused me a lot of water retention. Like edema level water retention.
    So far, I'm glad I have this medication option. It's not perfect. But it's better than other things I've tried.

      The 3 drugs are antipsychotic medicines intended to treat both schizophrenia and bipolar disorder so they have the same purpose.However,Latuda,as he said is more specific to treat depressive episodes while the other two are more useful to treat maniac episodes and seroquel works also as a mood stabilizer .

      If you look at the left hand side of the chemical structure for geodon and latuda you will see they are exactly the same, starting with the phenyl group. The right hand side is similar to risperidone and many others. The essence of what he's saying is that this isn't a new drug, it's a variation on things that already exist. That's not always a bad thing, a variant could work a lot better than what it's based on, but in this case the data suggests that this one isn't. For what it's worth I'm on it. Risperidone worked great for my mental health situation but the side effects sucked. Havent been on latuda long but at least it's not making me want to stuff my face constantly.

    I took it for bipolar. Didn't take it long because it made my body vibrate in the weirdest way. Everything I touched/touched me had a delay for me to actually feel it. Made driving scary. It definitely isn't sedating or makes you sleepy but it improved my sleep. I'm a periodic insomniac, and always a bouncy morning person. Not on Latuda lol. It felt great to sleep so much finally.

    I was on aripiprazole along with sertraline chloridatre, but I needed to up the dosage of aripiprazole, which was not advised, so after some considerations I switched to lurasidone and I have been better than before, with a minor side effect related to peaks of anxiety. For that I have a benzodiazepine prescription that I very very very rarely take because I am very afraid of getting adicted. I took it ten times tops over the last two years, one of those times before my first plane trip haha. Not that anyone cares, just sharing. I believe there is some great potential with latuda, maybe.

    Latuda has only been on the market for several years- so we have no idea how It will affect your neuro cognitive functioning and organs as you age. I was prescribed Latuda a couple weeks ago, but after research wouldn't touch it with a ten foot pole. I'd have to stop working out (fine print says to avoid prolonged cardio especially in heat- I live in Florida and workout outside every day), eat 350 calories before bed with pill, likely deal with fatigue and restlessness- all of which is a sum zero when compared to what I deal with as BP-1. To me-- those are my symptoms when I'm depressed. So why would I take a drug meant to treat depression when it will cause me to be depressed?! Tardive Dyskinesia is particularly concerning, and a whopping percentage of people develop it from this drug. I think this is way too new to be prescribed to patients, and to take it is acting as a guinea pig. Wouldn't be surprised to see a class action lawsuit against Latuda within the next several years. No thanks!

      I hate that antipsychotics like this and abilify are peddled for people who don't have psychosis. They are nasty drugs with very nasty side effects. No one should be on them if they don't have to be. Just my opinion as a person who does experience psychotic delusions at times and has to be on something for it. I have tried so many of them and they are all really gross. Seroquel is the only one I can tolerate, and only at low doses, and not without consequences.
      There are so many less extreme options for unipolar depression. I'm really sorry you were exposed to this. :( I don't understand why it's pushed so hard. I think if a doctor had first hand experience with antipsychotics they would be more careful about who they prescribed them to.

    First few weeks this worked fairly well for me. I had insomnia and would get bad nausea shortly after taking the med, but I had more energy and a clearer mind than on seroquel. However after week 3 I started getting an all too familiar restless-boredom that seems to appear every time I take an antipsychotic. My brain demands stimulation but can't focus on any activities or anything going on around me. It's as if these drugs suck up all of the dopamine my poor brain can produce. Time slows to a crawl and every passing day feels like hell. Abilify was the absolute worst offender. Like Latuda, Rexulti seemed fine at first but took a turn. Rexulti had some other side effects with my eyes. Latuda is not as bad as either of those but each day the restlessness gets worse. I don't know if I can make it another week like this.
