What exactly is Latuda? used mostly for what mental illness? & common side effects?

can latuda be used for treatment of schizophrenia? it was approved in 2010 I believe, a newer atypical anti-psychotic that hasn't been known to cause weight gain like the others..

But I think I heard it was also for bipolar depression/Bipolar different mood disorders does anyone know about this?

can you switch from say seroquel to latuda? my aunt takes a very powerful anti psychotic with awful side effects, shes overweight and zombiefied :/

shes a really sweethearted person, an I wish she could be happy again

    Latuda is a anti psychotic used to treat schizophrenia and bipolar disorder. It made me feel awful cause it made me puke everything I ate up. I was only on it for about a month then I went to the hospital to get my meds changed.

    Source(s): I took it and I'm also have schizophrenia.
