> In a pinch maybe you can get by on benadryl to take the edge off. usually antihistamine / anticholinergic drugs are used to help with EPS and akathisia. Cogentin, Artane, etc.
> Although, if you start getting a bit hypo when you take the afternoon dose, maybe reducing it or adding a small amount of an AAP would help?
>I'm supposed to be increasing the Nardil so I don't think reducing it is going to be an option. Can I even take Benedryl with Nardil? I thought it was on the list of drugs I can't take.
As for a small amount of an AAP, I'm already taking Risperdal at a small dosage. I just don't know what is going on.
