http://bipolar.about.com/od/fluanxol...upenthixol.htm

I have been experiencing low grade anxiety for no apparent reason and my friend, who is a p-doc in Europe, recommended a low dose of this AP in addition to my Geodon, to combat this anxiety. Looking at the about.com article, I suspect that this med is available in UK/Canada only, not in the US.

Is there anyone taking this med in the US?

I will let you know how it works for me- only been a week, to early to tell, small side effects...
Maybe you could get it from Canada?
take care

Hi again- went from 0,5mg up to 1 mg and I´m starting to feel the diference... planning on going up to 2 mg daily, 1 in the morning and 1 at night.
Just working my way up very easily and slowly coz Im supersensitive for side effects. And I´m quitting another med aswell, Tafil Retard... so trying to prevent withdrawl...
So far so good, less anxiety and more uplifted spirit
Keep you posted as I proceed...
Take care
