Re: Geodon, Abilify

In reply to is there a replacement for risperdal?, posted by babs on January 7, 2003, at 18:15:12

Anxiety and obsessions are most commonly treated with antidepressants and benzodiazepines, which generally have less severe side effects than AP's.

If you need an AP, maybe you could try Geodon or Abilify--both are in the same class as Risperdal and are associated with minimal weight gain. I take Geodon for a thought disorder and have experienced no weight gain. I hope you find something that works and has a better side effect profile--good luck.
