I was first put on 80mg at dinner time. I was still having symptoms after a couple of months on it, so I went to 80mg at night and 20 in the morning. It helped, but I was still hearing a voice, so I went up to 100mg at night and 20mg in the morning. No change in my symptoms. Pdoc said I might always hear a voice. I went up a year later to 120mg at night and 20mg in the morning because I was still hearing a voice. After a month I was lowered back down to 100mg at night and 20mg in the morning because there was no change.
I was sick of the side effects. I didn’t want to change medications. Almost every one I’ve read about - either reviews or reading about side effects online - showed weight gain as a side effect. So, I was lowered down to 20mg in the morning and 80mg at night. It’s working and has alleviated one or two side effects. Symptoms not worse.
So, how much Geodon are you on? Just curious to see what’s worked for others.
