In reply to had to go off ziprasidone/geodon - very upset, posted by avoet on April 11, 2001, at 20:16:24
Don't go off of it until perhaps your doctor can remedy some of these side-effects {you said that it was helping your anxiety, so who knows if any other drug will work as well?}
> I could not sleep on ziprasidone. It was stimulating my eye muscles and I could not shut them. It was a terrible side effect and I could not tolerate it. It was helping my anxiety and ruminating so I am very upset. I started back on risperidal again and increased my dose hoping to kill the anxiety. Has anyone had untolerable side effects from this geodon/ ziprasidone? It really weirded me out.
