> i've been on geodon at high dose, zyprexa is more sedating, but it does have some improvement on mood, but your kinda in calm state and can't get really manic excited.....

> zyprexa has been my night med for years.....but it lasts till the next day.....and it can cause some sedation, but red flag on zyprexa is weight gain, espcially at doses over 10mg

>How much Geodon have you been on? Remember that Geodon is kind of expensive I don't know if it's more expensive than Zyprexa. Here in my country we don't have gerenics for neither of both. I could afford a maximum of 80mg Geodon taken at night and that's it. I don't know if that would be enough for manteinance treatment.
In the other hand Zyprexa I wouldn't like to take no more than 7.5mg because of the weight gain.
