This is certainly a reasonable alternative. I didn't know that a SNRI had already been tried with good effect. I guess it is the SNRI properties of Geodon that make it work for Sheila as an antidepressant. However, she will probably need a potent anti-manic agent that can help stabilize mood. It would be nice to drop Geodon in favor of a SNRI and choose another antipsychotic as a mood stabilizer.
