For Extrapyramidal Reaction “I took this for the side effects from seroquel This drug made me disoriented, confused, and forgetful. It also didn’t help with my side effects.”

For Extrapyramidal Reaction “Absolutely the ONLY way I can take Latuda (life saving me for me) is by taking three small doses of Cogentin a day. I had excruciating muscle pain, a strange kind of dizziness, brain fog, and restlessness. I thought it could be some presentation of akasthisia. It was unbearable until I started Cogentin. Wonder if those with side effects are prescribed too high of a dose. I’m taking half of the .5 pill three times a day.”
