In reply to Antidepressant to Geodon..., posted by Sheilac on October 12, 2011, at 16:14:35
I don't think geodon creates heart damage. It could increase the length of the Qt interval, which would cause sudden death. But I don't think it has been a problem since geodon has been on the market. The original verson that was not aproved had a slight risk of it, but they refomulated it. Because of that they still had to put the warning on it. If your heart has not stoped yet it probably is not a problem. I took geodon for 2 years and have not heart problems.
