I promised a neighbor I'd post this. Okay she takes xanax and has for years. About to start a very stressful year of teaching her 24th one. She saw the pdoc here I also saw and he's been letting her take the xanax as she's taken for years. Well she couldn't sleep so he prescribed resperidol .25mg. She took it and was up til 4 am and angry when dealing with people at school. She has horrible anxiety and restlessness called the doc he said she had akethesia but said skip a night and take it again. Needless to say she's not but why would a pdoc recommend that someone with akathesia and inability now to sleep when she was sleeping okay til the stress encourage her to stay on the med that causes akatheia his diagnosi.
