Ah yes he good ole wait increased pills! I have been on some good ones and just went off Seraquil 200 because the Abilify wasn't working. So many reactions to it, was on for 3 months and now I have the non stop moving. If my legs aren't moving my fingers are, if I try stopping my feet still then my body starts to jump. On Requip, not helping...started Latuda July, my ins for off military base has copay, they don't have most of the new and high priced drugs, so have to pay 50 dollars for it. You know these meds must be part of the reason I can't shake my extra pounds!

I took laudable for a year, it's the only one that didn't contribute to weight gain or make me feel groggy. A little nausea, but that's why I took it at night. It's Brand only do very pricey. Good luck.
