đŸŠēWhat it's for

Lurasidone hydrochloride is indicated for: Treatment of adult and adolescent patients (13 to 17 years) with schizophrenia [see Clinical Studies (14.1)]. Monotherapy treatment of adult and pediatric patients (10 to 17 years) with major depressive episode associated with bipolar I disorder (other indication) [see Clinical Studies (14.2)].

💊How to take it

Lurasidone hydrochloride should be taken with food (at least 350 calories). Administration with food substantially increases the absorption of lurasidone hydrochloride (2.3, 12.3). Moderate and Severe Renal Impairment: Recommended starting dose is 20 mg per day, and the maximum recommended dose is 80 mg per day (2.4, 8.6).

â„šī¸Common side effects

In placebo-controlled trials with risperidone, aripiprazole, and olanzapine in elderly subjects with dementia, there was a higher incidence of cerebrovascular adverse reactions (cerebrovascular accidents and transient ischemic attacks), including fatalities, compared to placebo-treated subjects. Lurasidone hydrochloride is not approved for the treatment of patients with dementia-related psychosis [see Boxed Warning, Warnings and Precautions (5.1)].

âš ī¸Serious risks

Increased Mortality in Elderly Patients with Dementia-Related Psychosis Elderly patients with dementia-related psychosis treated with antipsychotic drugs are at an increased risk of death. Lurasidone hydrochloride is not approved for the treatment of patients with dementia-related psychosis [see Warnings and Precautions (5.1)]. Suicidal Thoughts and Behaviors Antidepressants increased the risk of suicidal thoughts and behavior in pediatric and young adults in short-term studies.

📋Interactions & cautions

Concomitant Use with CYP3A4 Inhibitors Lurasidone hydrochloride should not be used concomitantly with a strong CYP3A4 inhibitor (e.g., ketoconazole, clarithromycin, ritonavir, voriconazole, mibefradil, etc.) [see Contraindications (4)]. If lurasidone hydrochloride is being prescribed and a moderate CYP3A4 inhibitor (e.g. diltiazem, atazanavir, erythromycin, fluconazole, verapamil etc.) is added to the therapy, the lurasidone hydrochloride dose should be reduced to half of the original dose level.
