Which time do you usually take your medicines?

I take Geodon (80mg each pill) twice a day, 05:40 AM and 05:40 PM.

When I wake up and before I go to sleep.

Which ones do you take?

Zyprexa and Seroquel

I took Seroquel in the past only one day, I think, and I felt bad and stopped taking it.
And Zyprexa is the med that I was taking before Geodon and I was sleepy all the time.

Do you feel sleepy with Zyprexa or have some weight gain?

I sleep a lot and Seroquel makes me tired in the morning, but Zyprexa doesn’t. And my weight is normal. I was underweight before starting Zyprexa, so the weight gain has been good for me.

I had a lot of weight gain with Risperdal and Zyprexa. Now I have 84 kilos. I had less than 75 kilos in the past I think, maybe 70 kilos, more than 5 years ago.

Most people gain a lot of weight from Zyprexa. For me the weight gain has been small and just healthy. I weigh about 65-66 kg now and I’m on the skinny side of normal.

I take it before sleep…!!!
i am on 5 mg zyprexa…!!!
yeah i gained 12kg on it…!!!

200mg amisulpride at breakfast time (around 9am)

I’m supposed to take my antidepressant (Effexor) as soon as I wake up, which is something I still have to remind myself to do. As for my antipsychotic (Seroquel), I take it at 5 pm.

I was taking my injection every 5 weeks, now I’m taking every 4 weeks again.

Haloperidol 2.5mg - Just before bed.

I take 10mg Abilify at 08:00 and 15mg Abilify at 20:00.
I also take 200mg Epitec at 20:00.

I take my lexapro (10mg) when I wake up and my Invega (3mg) before bed

I take my lexapro and invega as soon as I get up in the morning.

I take my meds when I wake up and go to sleep. I have Abilify 25 mg and Seroquel 200 mg atm. I increase it when I need more sleep.
