IS ANYONE ELSE TAKING GEODON?
By luvmi88 on Fri, 04-13-12, 07:21
I do get down, but it's more of an extremely sleepy state. I also notice that I become slightly irritable. Has your side affects worn off any? My hopes are that the sleepiness wears off. Until I get my doc's approval I am still taking 80mg at lunch and 80mg at dinner...

I took Geodon and I got Flipped T waves in my heart and they thought I had had a heart attack so I can not take it ever again, but I felt it did not help my Bi-polar, Good luck to you..Goofy17

Hello, luvmi88, you can read my post by ChellBell0613. I do not take as much as yourself, but have experienced some draw backs when I went up on my dosage. I do not know if it is me going through a depressive state coincidentally or if I need to up my dosage or lower it a bit. I was doing wonderful at 40mg, then pschy asked me to up to 80mg and I feel like my sliver lining cloud has been pulled right from under my feet. Have you experienced any of this while going up on your dosage? Thanks...
