Since taking it has kept me leveled out and I’m sleeping better at night and less anxious during the day. I think it’s doing a great job. I haven’t gained any weight on it.??

I started this medication about almost a year ago when I was showing signs of going into mania and my current medication was not cutting it. Obviously I was skeptical I've been on medication since I was 13 I'm now 34 and have yet to find the right combination, so I hate to say but I usually expect it to fail, anyhow I started lybalvi and I did have some side effects at first for almost a week, at night if I would wake up to go to the bathroom I wasn't very stable on my feet , felt as if my blood pressure had just dropped or something, but I stuck it out and I am so glad I did this medication has been a game changer for me and in the most crucial part of my life , where I needed it the most, I have improved so much I don't even believe it , because honestly I never thought I would ever be stable again . this medication has gave me my life back and I am so incredibly grateful, I would definitely recommend to anyone to at least give it a shot side effects can be rough but give it a little bit if possible because in my experience it could be the best thing you've ever done.Read More Read Less

This medicine after just the first lowest dose possible made very sick and ended up in the emergency room for bad side effects.. just took the lowest dose at 5/10mg and started getting very sick. My Nerothophy got severely intense and was having awake seizures. Absolutely a fighting experience for a 47 year male Ilitterly thought I was go9ng to have a brain stroke and die. That pain in my legs and feet was unbearable. Thanks to th Hospital E.R dept they fixed it with steroid shot and pain relief. I could not honestly offer this medicine to anyone buyer beware. I had also was having awake seizures and I have never been prone to seizures I am an old hippie been around the block a few times. So Yall be careful of this stuff. This is a dangerous drug. Read about it before you take it. I Wouldn't wish it on my worst enemy.Read More Read Less

It isn't that great, it's causing me drowsiness, dry mouth and dizziness in the morning after I take it even before my bed time, I do not recommend it unless you want those side effects but I'm going to be getting off of it soon. There are better drugs than this one!
