Has anyone had success with Ingrezza 40-80mg Capsules for tardive dyskinesia?
I've been struggling with tardive dyskinesia for a while now, and my doctor recently prescribed Ingrezza 40-80mg to manage my symptoms. I've read a bit about the side effects and I'm curious to know if anyone else has had good experiences with this medication. Has it helped with the involuntary movements? How long did it take to see results? I'm also worried about the side effects listed, especially the more severe ones. Have any of you experienced any of these? And if so, how did you manage them? I'm looking for any insights or tips from people who have gone through similar situations.

I've been looking into Ingrezza for my mom's symptoms, I'm glad she hasn't been experiencing side effects. I do wish there was more info on how to manage some of the more serious side effects though.
The fatigue is real, but I found that taking the medication at night helped me adjust to it better. It reduced the involuntary movements so much that I've had no regrets about starting it.
What's the deal with the Parkinson's-like symptoms? Did anyone else experience those? I'm pretty worried about that.
I started on the lower dose and gradually increased to 80mg. It took about 2 months to really notice a difference, but it's been worth the wait. The dry mouth was annoying at first, but it got better over time.
Honestly, the side effects are scary, but my doctor said they're rare. Good luck with your treatment!
Be prepared for a bit of dizziness and constipation. But if you drink lots of water and get some regular exercise, that can be managed.
My friend's wife was on this medication for a while, and she never had any symptoms resembling Parkinson's disease, so I hope that helps.
Have you looked into any alternative treatments? I've heard some people have good results with physical therapy alongside medication.
I've been on Ingrezza for about 6 months now and it's been a game-changer. The involuntary movements have significantly reduced, and I've had no major side effects except for some drowsiness initially. It took about a month to see noticeable improvements. I highly recommend talking to your doctor about it if you're struggling.
I had a mild allergic reaction when I first started taking it. My doctor helped me manage it with some antihistamines, and it eventually went away. It's definitely worth sticking with if it helps with your symptoms.
