My doc was ok with me trying Latuda.
The unbelievable thirst and constant urination became painful. My bladder was starting to hurt due to all the urination.
There is concern about diabetes. I have it in my family and I've always been conscience of it because of taking Geodon.
Also, in 5 days of Rexulti, I gained 4 lbs. I didn't even realize it until my doc asked me to step on the scale. I never changed my weight. That is frustrating.
But I did fail Abilify, so I'm not shocked that I didn't like Rexulti. I gained 8 lbs on Abilify.
So, I'm going to slowly wean off Geodon while ramping up on Latuda.
I feel pretty good about it.
