Latuda is only indicated for schizophrenia. I believe some of the others are for bipolar disorder.
Now, some of the symptoms you mention like “being all over the place” could be consistent with schizophrenia. I guess the issue is, did she have these symptoms before being loaded up with all these meds? If she did have schizophrenic symptoms, then Latuda could be appropriate, but it sounds like she may be getting worse.
Definitely time for a second opinion, and not one that deals with her over the phone.
Topiramate and lamotrigine are both seizure meds.

No, until she was diagnosed bipolar she was basically normal, as normal as we all are as individuals. It was only once she was given meds that she started to go sideways and it was gradual over time.
Thank you for your thoughts. I appreciate your comments. It's really helpful, food for thought, and has given me direction.
