I think the max recommended dose is 240/day. My psychiatrist says that higher doses are safe. I started out with a lower dose and we just increased until it started working. I've tried several other meds but Geodon seems to be the only thing that keeps me off the psych ward. And even then I sometimes have to add zyprexa. My psychiatrist says that when nothing else works Geodon usually will. I really am not functional on a lower dose.
