In reply to Low dose Geodon?, posted by SheilaC on June 21, 2010, at 16:36:39
Geodon really helped me with mood stabilization as well as anxiety. It is very sedating for me though, I see pdoc on Monday and hope I can lower my dose. I'm not sure if I want to be on it long term. Lamictal and Klonopin work well for me with minimal side effects. Unfortunately it wasn't enough to prevent a bad mixed episode that started about 7 weeks ago. I have been on Geodon for about 5 weeks now.
I think it is worth a try, it isn't suppose to cause weight gain like Seroquel and Zyprexa. I have not gained a single pound. herpills
