For Schizophrenia "Fanapt is the first medicine we've tried where I can function because of the medicine. I can hold a job now, the paranoia is way down, and I only get a few hallucinations throughout the day. My mind isn't quite as sharp, and the dry throat gets pretty bad, but other than that, this drug has saved my life. I've been on it for 8 months now."

For Schizophrenia "I was on 24 mg of Fanapt for about 2.5 years. Prior to that, I had tried probably every antipsychotic, and the only ones that worked were Seroquel and Zyprexa, but I gained 60 lbs on them. I finally came to the realization that Fanapt wasn't actually doing much for me. I still had hallucinations and delusions and was acting crazy, so I decided to come off it because I didn't see the point in taking it anymore. I do have to say it had the least side effects compared to others I've taken. The only thing it helped was my daily cycling of bipolar disorder, but I'd rather not take anything than take an antipsychotic. After quitting Fanapt, I've lost all the weight."

For Schizophrenia "Amazing medicine, side effects minimal and results fast. Hallucinations, visual and auditory, gone completely within days of starting this medication, also seemed to improve overall mood."
