After care center had my son taking 3 Haldol 5 mg and 3 Wellbutrin and 1 20g Prozac. He developed severe EPS. Our regular pdoc recommended Latuda. The first 3 meds I mentioned were phased out over 2 weeks leaving just Latuda. I was encouraged in the beginningand yes after a month the EPS symptoms were mostly gone.
Now he is taking 1 80 mg Latuda a day at 9:00 PM. It's horrible he is so inconsistent from one day to the next it's unbelieveable his psychosis is breaking through big time after over 6 weeks on Latuda he is a ticking time bomb. Almost any sound or distraction will set him off. I am not certain if he is sleeping at all. He says he is but he is good at denial. I left a message for the pdoc but he didn't answer. Open to suggestions.
