Hello all,
My psychiatrist is taking me off all anti-psychotic meds because my problems stemmed from abusing alcohol and I'm now sober. I got off Olanzapine and Seroquel fairly easy because I was able to cut the smallest dose tabs into quarters.
The Geodon is another matter entirely. I've been on it for a year at 160mg daily and the doctor cut out 80mg right away. For three weeks I've been experiencing: headaches, jaw muscle pain and cramping in my stomach. The doctor says to wait until I stabilize before I drop to 60mg. Anyone out there experienced this? I'm treating the symptoms with hot baths, herbal tea and an occasional Tylenol but am open to suggestions.
Thanks much.
