Also, I hope your doctor cleared up how Latuda levels can be reduced on Tegretol. I happen to be on Latuda as well. It’s been great for me and I’ve had no problems, curious if you’re still on the combo?
Best wishes!

Sorry for the late reply! So things for a bit got worse for me, and then better once I was prescribed lexapro. Now, my new doc thinks I should go off the tegretol and stick to latuda and lexapro. She says I can go cold turkey off the tegretol cause it's such a low dose. Her thinking is it was giving me all the side effects, but none of the benefits. How are things going for you?
