As you have described, Latuda taken with food (300-350 calories) is more effective. However, your context must also be taken into account. You could take the medication later in the evening if the drowsiness prevents your normal activities. The dose may need to be adjusted accordingly. Your pharmacist may follow up with you 2-3 weeks after the change in dose and/or schedule to check for effectiveness and tolerance. Also be aware that drowsiness is usually more pronounced in the days/weeks following a dose increase, and that it subsides over time in most people. We hope this answers your question, and if you need any further information, please do not hesitate to contact us
