EPS is a rare occurrence at dosages under 6mg., and lactation is not as much of a problem as it is with other antipsychotics. In fact, at low concentrations, it suppresses the secretion of prolactin. Unfortunately, the study I saw did not give a human dosage equivalent for this inhibitory concentration. Nevertheless, it is an interesting drug.

Going to see how I do without the Seroquel. My anxiety is high now without it.
