Xanax gives me a drugged feeling while stelazine is so subtle. I am afraid to continue xanax, most probably I will end up in abusing it to experience that drugged high feeling. So, either Stelazine or Sulpiride. I have to make choice in between these two big S's. What may be your choice?
> Thanks for allHi,
I have tried both and I think that Sulpiride at 50mg a day is a much better choice : I had Akathisia with stelazine at 2mg,and sulpiride is one of the APs that are known to very ralrley cause the famous AP's side effects.....However, personally, I wouldn't trade AP for a benzo to treat anxiety-related issues..AP's are powerful drugs on the mind and can have very serious effects, while benzos have no serious side effects and all that you need is to choose the one that suits you and to take it as needed- the risk of "addiction" is way overexaggerated.
