> I took Geodon for about a year. It is the best anti-depressant i have ever taken. It has true SNRI properties. It was also good for OCD. I had to stop taking it because it caused me to gain a lot of weight. I believe my weight experience is atypical, in that the literature indicates that it is supposed to be weight neutral.
What dosage of Geodon were you taking?
I'm sorry that you had to discontinue it. Drugs can be such a pain in the neck, to say the least. If at some point in the future you feel you have no choice but to return to Geodon, you can try taking amantadine along with it to attempt to prevent weight gain. It seems to work with Zyprexa.
What are you taking right now?
