my doc has switched me from Seroquel to Geodon. I am taking 40 mg twice for 3 days and then will be taking 80 mg twice daily. Anyone taken this drug and have a good result?

I was on it for quite some time, but had to stop because the tremors/shaking was so bad that I couldn't stop. Hope it works out better for you.

I took 80 mg twice daily. No side effects whatsoever. Good luck and take care of you!

according to the crazymeds site, involuntary rotating of the eyes is a rare side effect of Geodon. You've all been warned.

I took this for a while, but then I got a rash, Now I'm on Invega, seems to be working well. I also take 1 mg on Xanax at bedtime and .50 in morningt along with 50 mg. of Lamictal. So far so good. Still have periods of depression, but am working hard at keeping busy around
house since getting ready to sell. Too much house and I'm not working also so can't afford to keep. Lots of stressors in my life doesn't help! |
