In reply to had to go off ziprasidone/geodon - very upset, posted by avoet on April 11, 2001, at 20:16:24
> I could not sleep on ziprasidone. It was stimulating my eye muscles and I could not shut them. It was a terrible side effect and I could not tolerate it. It was helping my anxiety and ruminating so I am very upset. I started back on risperidal again and increased my dose hoping to kill the anxiety. Has anyone had untolerable side effects from this geodon/ ziprasidone? It really weirded me out.

> AmandaAmanda,
Hope this is not a stupid question but did you try taking it earlier and earlier in the day - maybe asking your doc if you could cut out the second dose altogether if that didn't work?
Did the eye reaction bother you during the day or just at night?
