I was taking 500mg of Seroquel, 100mg 9am, 100mg 5pm and 300mg at bedtime. Then, I was still having visual hallucinations and hearing voices - scaring me to death like I'd never been before in my entire life!!
I felt that to add more Seroquel would be over-medicating - it already knocks me out like a horse - I'm 5'6" 115 lbs. But, the hallucinations and voices would only occur in the middle of the night or early in the morning.
So, my new psychiatrist just now put me on Geodon like I'd requested - he said, substitut 1-20mg pill for 1-100mg of Seroquel slowly until you are taking 80mg of Geodon by the next time I see you. Which is not until Nov.5.
My question is - since Geodon doesn't come with a "drowsy" warning on it, when should I take the Geodon? Should I take the whole she-bang at night? Should I split it up? Please help me. Any and all advice is welcome.
Thank you my peers,
Jane
