Latuda (lurasidone) - Weight gain?

Posted by SLS on January 31, 2012, at 1:20:14

I thought that Latuda was weight-neutral. Apparently, this is not so all of the time.

A small weight gain of about one or two pounds is typical during treatment with Latuda. However,
in clinical studies, up to 5.6 percent of people taking this drug gained at least 7 percent of their body weight.

I know that one of our members reported losing 17 pounds after switching to Latuda.

Does anyone have experience with Latuda to share regarding body weight?

Thank you.

I know someone off the boards an old babbler thinking of trying this med after zyprexa. I'd like to follow this so can report back to him. Thanks Phillipa
