In reply to Akathisia - help!, posted by pretty_paints on February 8, 2005, at 8:05:40
When i have had akathisia i have found benztropine to be the best drug to stop it. Actually a combo of Depakote and Benztropine worked best for me. Oh and benzo's help somewhat too. I hope it goes away for you soon. I can really relate. When I had my worst bout of it, the only releif i had was when i slept. I couldnt even watch tv and so on, simple things are so hard when you have it. I have read that some people have actually committed suicide because of akathisia so I dont understand why a lot of pdocs dont take the matter seriously.
Take care
