ehygon Posted June 24, 2009 Share Posted June 24, 2009 I discontinued geodon myself, because it wasnt worth the gelatin capsule the drug came in, let alone the 300 dollars for a months supply. of course, the crawling feelings which riddle my posts on these forums came back. my dr started me on 2mg haldol, which i know is a tiny dose, and it doesnt quite last, and it doesnt quite work. Can I go much higher without having to worry about growing titties and lactating (again)? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blackbird Posted June 24, 2009 Share Posted June 24, 2009 I'm on 3mg and at that dose after about 3 months my periods cease (but I don't lactate). Mind you, I am very sensitive to prolactin-raising drugs. I keep having to drop down to 1.5mg for a while then go back up again. 2mg is a baby dose. It all depends on your prolactin-sensitivity. Maybe you could get away with 5mg? That's still quite low. blackbird x Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Velvet Elvis Posted June 24, 2009 Share Posted June 24, 2009 I had problems with akathisia at doses much over 2mgs. EPS is something you have to watch out for with this one. I suspect it's likely to raise prolactin for similar reasons. That said you're on a baby dose. I've seen people here on doses up to 20mgs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
