I was recently prescribed Ingrezza 40mg Capsules to treat my tardive dyskinesia, and I have to say, it's been a game-changer. Before starting this medication, I had uncontrolled, involuntary movements that made daily activities incredibly challenging. Ingrezza works by affecting certain chemical messengers in the brain, which helps reduce these movements. I've noticed a significant improvement in my symptoms, but I've also had to deal with some side effects. The most common ones I've experienced are drowsiness and fatigue, but they're manageable compared to the relief from the dyskinesia. However, I did have a bit of a scare early on when I experienced some blurred vision and dizziness. I contacted my doctor immediately, and after some adjustments to my dosage, those symptoms went away. I'm sharing my experience to help others understand what to expect when starting Ingrezza. If you're considering this medication, it's important to be aware of the potential side effects and to communicate openly with your healthcare provider.

Unfortunately, I had to stop taking Ingrezza because of the severe side effects. I experienced muscle stiffness and fever, which turned out to be neuroleptic malignant syndrome. My doctor immediately switched me to another medication which seems to be working without the severe side effects.If you ever experience symptoms like mine, please see a doctor right away.

I found out about Ingrezza because I've been experiencing some of those involuntary movements. It's relieved me to see positive experiences from others. Thank you for sharing!

I recently switched from a different medication to Ingrezza and I can't believe the difference. My movements are much more controlled, and I feel like I have my life back. Just make sure to monitor your heart rate and blood pressure regularly.

I've been on Ingrezza for a month now, and it's been a roller coaster. I had a few bouts of dizziness and shortness of breath, but after talking to my doctor, we adjusted the dosage, and things have been much better. The hardest part was dealing with the initial side effects, but I'm glad I stuck with it.
