A member asked:

I was put on latuda (lurasidone) will take it tonight any serious reports? none of other antipsychotics caused dyskinesia for me

Low risk: Latuda (lurasidone) is safe with relatively good side effects profile, dyskinesia is a rare extrapyramidal effect, but still possible even with latuda, (lurasidone) but if none of the previous antipsychotics caused dyskinesia , this time the risk is remote
