Lurasidone is supposedly weight-neutral and doesn't have the SNRI properties of Geodon. Also, lurasidone, like risperidone, antagonizes 5-HT7 receptors, so you might glean an antidepressant effect from it. There is some thought by Stephen Stahl that dosages below 40 mg/day of Geodon can actually promote agitation. I believe that 40 mg/day is what most people use for depression.
