Update - the bit of dark urine is in the morning only usually. There seems to be nothing better so I am just going to stay on it. I am going to ask my doctor for blood tests in the spring and hopefully all is well. I will be off that nasty Olanzapine 2.5 mg for almost a year so things should be a lot better.

Updated -Some Lurasidone Side Effects I Am Experiencing
I'm on 20 mg of Lurasidone for over five months now and I noticed that I'm sleepy and my urine is a bit darker especially in the morning. I have a lot less side effects than being on Olanzapine, however. My gastrointestinal system is great again! I am not constipated at all! I'm a lot happier and more myself. I don't have mutant psychic powers and my mind isn't racing. The bit of dark urine is concerning though. I'm slowly losing weight and my immune system is getting better every day. It's a bit slow but I was on Olanzapine for about 4 years mostly at the lowest dose of 2.5 mg. I started drinking green tea daily and taking cranberry supplements to help. I'm still doing aroebics five days a week but my eating habits are all over the place due to stress. Someone in my family over extended themselves and is constantly asking me for money. In a couple months they will have paid off a loan and should not ask me as much they said. We shall see!!! One of the main reasons I went back to work was to help them and others. I constantly donate to the Salvation Army each pay. Maybe I might apply there one day for a pay job. I hope it's remote.
