It’s causing me to have tachycardia. I’ve been weaning off it. There’s 3 days left but tonight I can hardly catch my breath due to the tachycardia it’s causing. I’m going to leave a message for my pdoc letting her know. Hopefully the triage nurse passes on the message like they’re supposed to.

I have tachycardia too. My pulse is around 115 bpm. I just deal with it.

I’m supposed to be weaning off the Invega anyway, so I think it’s ok to stop since I just checked and I only have 3 days left.

I have a feeling cross tapers can be a bad idea with some drugs, too much interaction side effects. Better to go as low as you can without getting relapse symptoms on the one you are on and then just make a clean swith to the new one.

I understand your confusion about having to start a new meds and stop an old meds. I too was confused when I quit Ziprasidone 7 weeks ago. But if you can manage to get off Invega and on Haldol the reward is a slim body.

Yup. I’m done taking Invega now. Already stopped it. Hopefully it goes well
