    I cant give a full review, I've only been on it 2 weeks. I have bp2 adhd. I'm on 20mg. The first day I took it it knocked me out, like I was on drugs. That night I loss sleep, also the second night no sleep. I feel a little spark of energy im a little more focused. I feel she should up the dosage and it will be just right. I really hope this is the answer to me getting myself back.

    Have struggled with bipolar for too many years. Many of those years I was on the wrong medications, which only made it worse. Finally, three years ago, after a breakdown I was started on Latuda. It was like putting on clear glasses. My mood, behavior and feelings all dramatically improved. And no more psychoses and paranoia.

    This medicine seemed like a miracle drug to me when I first began taking it about 5 years ago. As my dosage increased, I started to develop symptoms of Tardive Dyskinesia. I could not stop moving my legs and my mouth did very strange movements. I took myself off of this medication and I feel so much better!

    I take 40mg and my mood has been so much better; I feel like my head has been cleared of clouds. I do have trembling and this has increased some. I do find it hard to sit still at times so I find ways to engage my brain. It's only been a month but I am very satisfied with this drug. It's a blessing for me after all the other mood stabilizers I have tried and no weight gain.

    I've been on Latuda almost 11 years. It is a wonderful mood stabilizer. Latuda gave me my life back. I also take Lamictal and Seroquel. They are my mix of drugs that have worked for me.
