In reply to Judy - on a/p trial ..., posted by action_jackson on September 1, 2002, at 15:00:15
unfortunately, i started with injections of haldol and thorazine- both resulting in acute dystonia within a week. on the atypicals- i had akathisia on 4mg/day of risperdal within 24 hours; zyprexa induced parkinsonism at 5mg/day in a week (at 10 mg/day it took 3 days) i loathe these drugs- my pdoc has seen incidences of EPS in about 75% of patients on atypicals. hope this helps- judy
