I'm possibly switching from Abilify to Latuda this week and am very fearful of gaining weight on Latuda. What can I do to 100 precent not gain weight on Latuda? My ability to exercise and my physical appearance is a priority in my life and I cannot gain to 300+ pounds. With me weight gain is hard to notice. I've gained weight since high school 220 to 252 and haven't noticed any changes in my physical appearance and the way my clothes fit.
I will probably have to switch because the long term side effects of abilify are catching up to me (tremors in my left side and lots of involuntary blinking).
