> Oh I can tell you every atypical except for Zyprexa and Seroquel gave me akathisia day 1 in trial. And I know first hand what excruciating akathisia is. Don't go into a hospital if you're vomiting and have a high fever because chances are they'll use a cheap drug like Compazine, put you in a room and forget about you and only after you are ready to punch a hole in the plaster will they come back with Benadryl, which will wear off on the taxi ride home.
Do you think it was the anticholinergic properties of Benadryl that helped? Which drugs do you feel are the best to treat akathisia?
Thanks.
