Well, we had a horrible experience with Geodon for Aly. She had a dystonic reaction, scared us and her school to death! First, she couldn't close her mouth completely, drool would just come out, kinda like after getting a filling at the dentist. Then, her entire right side of her body went into this horrible, contorsionist thing. The doctor explained it like a mini-stroke. Her arm was pulled back in an awkward position, she couldn't walk or talk. It was very frightening indeed!
Just watch your difficult child, if she has ANY strange mouth or body contorsions, call your psychiatrist immediately or head to the ER!!
Sorry to give you bad news on this medication, it is just one of those things with Aly, she is very sensitive to medications.
Good luck and hugs,
Vickie
