Been on latuda (lurasidone) for 2 weeks, now at 40mgs, still having bad thoughts, any ideas?

Well...: Most medication like this take at least 6 weeks to be fully effective... Talk to your prescribing doctor anyway

Latuda (lurasidone): You need to talk directly to your prescribing doctor about your thoughts, so you can get relief.

Don't give up: hope. You haven't been on Latuda for very long. May take 3 to 4 weeks at an appropriate dose for you to see effects and possible 2 to 3 months to see full effects. REF: https://www.nami.org/Learn-More/Treatment/Mental-Health-Medications/Lurasidone
