New medication Latuda

I was just prescribed the medication Latuda; if anyone has experience with this medication and could share their experience I'd appreciate it. I was on Seroquel and had no luck so they've started me on Latuda. Just concerned about its effectiveness as well as potential side effects.

Thanks

I take Latuda. No side effects. It was working for me until we had a huge family blow up. Then I went into another major depressive episode. I don't know if the med stopped working or if my stress was too much. I am still taking it but have added Wellbutrin 8 days ago and it is helping. Good luck

I took latuda for a little while. I was also on 450mg wellbutrin, 25mg zoloft, and .5mg klonopin.

I believe the latuda was really working. I began to feel good. No uncontrollable crying spells, not feeling like I wanted to cry every second of everyday.

However, the dreaded side effect. I got the tremors and weakness, primarily on my left side. It got to the point if I held anything in that hand it would shake like a leaf. I told doctor I couldn't deal with that and stopped hoping to ward off permanent effects.

For the most part it has stopped. Very little shaking and if I concentrate on it, it seems that I can stop it all together. Also, I don't feel the weakness on that side like I did.

For me, the medicines that work the best always give me a side effect that I am unwilling to sustain. Sensitive to these medicines that are designed to help me manage but I keep trying.

Hope it works well for you. Like I said I thought I had a winning combination with latuda.
