User Reviews for Geodon intramuscular

After staying with the same American, medication-fixated doctor for over a decade, I changed to a European, diet-focused doctor who, upon learning what Rxs my first doctor had me on, immediately took me off them. I had not been on Geodon long, and he said that’s a lucky thing. He said if I’d have stayed on Geodon a decade, I would “be a slobbering zombie”. If that shocks you, it did me, as well. Do NOT take this poison. Eat organic because pesticides and GMO foods are making you sick.

Geodon has helped with the depression side of my bipolar. I do the things I always used to. One thing I have noticed is my hair,scalp and face are extremely oily since Ive been taking this medication. So bad I wash my face four times or more a day and shower every other day. I have psorisis of the scalp sp I have to be very careful.

It seems to be the mildest anti-psychotic, but it sometimes gives me anxiety

I have type II bipolar and since being on Geodon it has completely changed my life. I have been on it since August 2009. I used to have horrible mood swings and those are gone. I am now stable. I take 240 mg at night and have had no trouble at all. May make me a little sleepy.

Had to stop. Never had heart problems. Now at age 54 MD states serious problems. Stop right away

I was not satisfied with this drug. I got parkinson like symptoms and am not able to work at this time because of my balance and the tremors in my hands. I may be in the lower percentile, but I was only on the drug for one month before the symptoms started and it took another five months for a neurologist to diagnose my drug induced parkinson symptons. I want my life back. I am hoping these symptoms are not forever. I have become a two finger typer. I probably will not be able to go back to0 my position as a Construction Inspector with my lack of balance. I am off the medication 9 weeks and am only slightly improved...so watch out...

One time IM use for acute anxiety/inability to cope following a witnessed selfinflicked gunshot wound to the head of spouse.

this treatment is awsome. I love drugs.

Amazing drug. Nothing is better to take down an unruly lunatic.Especially used with Benadryl and Ativan in a cocktail. NIGHTY NITE-see ya in 12 hrs.

it has made me sick

My son (23 years old today)has been on it for 4 days taking 60 mg. in AM and 60 mg. PM. He just got off of Rispidole(it wasn't working for him and made him very hungry). and he started geodon and does nothing but sleep. The insurance company would not cover 3 pills a day (we were going to do 40 AM and 80 PM which would be 3 pills a day but we had no choice but to give him 60 and 60 which is only 2 pills a day. After it wears off, he's very restless and his behaviors start to reappear. After he receives it at PM he can't keep his eyes open and sleeps again through the night. AM before medicated, he's restless again.I give it to him in AM and he sleeps for 3 hours. Please advise. I'm waiting for the doctor to call me back. He's also on Clonazapam (Clonopin) and Depokote. He's MR and ADHD with serious behavior problems. He's been hospitalized recently due to behaviors. I've had to take off work constantly and I'm down to 6 days. after that I don't get paid anymore. I ready to 302 him if he has another episode and just leave him at the hospital until they find a medication that works. I heard Lithium works well with Depokote. But I also worry about all this medication and it's side effects. Desperate please help me. ACRead More Read Less

I take 80mg twice a day ..It has really helped with my mixed episodes of manic and depression..It took about 2wks to work proberly ..I have had no weight gain or bloating with this med..

This was given to my 78 year old mother who had heart and breathing problems for many years documented in her medical history. Use of this drug I believe killed my mother. She was given only one injection to "calm" her at an emergency room.

developed a rash and hives. however i woud suggest the use of this med. it was working great before the rash and hives

went to hospital with crying jags. after 4 1/2 hours, dr gave me 10 mg shot

I quit hearing voices within a week of taking this medication. But it makes me very sleepy and groggy the next day.
