if you are concerned about allergic reaction to med while you are sleeping then i would start using it during the day.
i will give you a heads up though, i think it must effect people differently but when i took it no one (not even pdoc) warned me about severe solmnence.
i literally felt like a herd of elephants landed on me and had to leave work to go home and sleep. i've Never felt that kind of tired/exahustion before.
it was then i Really realized the description some people use here on zyprexa of "elephant dart"...yep that was it.
Geodon did that for me. i shouldn't even have been driving my car.
it took about three/four days for that effect to wear off. so you may want to plan to start on a weekend, or take a few days off work.again, i think it effects everyone different so it may not effect you that way. but just keep your eyes open for it.
Take care and Best wishes
