In reply to Geodon is NOT a good med for me! » medlib, posted by Mimi on May 27, 2003, at 6:56:21
I did not like what I found: that Geodon is in fact a dangerous med for heart function, specifically, it can prolong the QT interval.
Well, this is not dangerious, per se.
It is the degree that makes it something to
be conserned or not about.
TCA's are well known to cause EKG
readings, millions took them and few
had incident with this. My EKG showed
changes while I was on TCA's for many years.
These changes go away when you stop taking the med. What does not go away are the movement disorders, it is far more resonable to be conserned about that, with any AP.
