I am extremely worried about a friend who recently was released from the psych hospital in our community. I know she has been diagnosed as BP but I do not know her other specific illnesses. She was most recently admitted for suicidal thoughts. She gave me her list of current meds today and I am astounded at what she is taking and at the mixture of meds. I am asking for others opinions (either positive or negative) on her meds before I jump to any conclusions and advise her to seek help elsewhere. I must tell you she is extremely unstable and really needs some excellent help. Here is her list:
Lithium: 300mg X2 a day
Geodon: 40mg X2 a day
Lamictal: 100mg X2 a day
Klonopin: .5mg X4 a day
Seroquel: 50mg X2 a day plus 300mg at night
Trileptal: 150 a day
Lexapro: 20mg a day
Sectral: 200mg X2 a dayI am interested to hear what any of you think. Thanks in advance.
