rjvfl Posted September 21, 2017 Share Posted September 21, 2017 I'm curious whether fellow Latuda users take it in the morning, afternoon, or night. My pdoc took me off Seroquel and added Latuda several weeks ago. I didn't think to ask about time of day to take it, so I just assumed that I would take it at the same time of day as Seroquel. I had to take the Seroquel at bedtime, because it knocked me out. I'm still having trouble with sleepiness on my drive to work in the mornings, like when I took Seroquel and don't know if it's the Latuda causing the tiredness or whether it's something else.

saintalto Posted September 22, 2017 Share Posted September 22, 2017 I take mine all in the pm because they make me a little drowsy. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
browri Posted September 23, 2017 Share Posted September 23, 2017 I found that the 20mg and 40mg doses of Latuda were actually stimulating so I had to take those in the morning but when it was increased to 60mg I had to start taking it at night because it was sedating.

mcjimjam Posted September 24, 2017 Share Posted September 24, 2017 I'm IP and they've been giving it with night meds. I don't think it makes me sleep. I'm only on 20mg. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
browri Posted September 24, 2017 Share Posted September 24, 2017 Yeah in my experience, 20mg should be taken in the morning. If they want you to take it at night they should increase your dose. Have they started you on any other meds while IP? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikl_pls Posted September 24, 2017 Share Posted September 24, 2017 I always took it around 5:00 PM with dinner, but I've never been on any dose lower than 40 mg. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
