Has anyone experienced severe side effects while taking Geodon 60mg Capsules (Ziprasidone) for schizophrenia or bipolar disorder? How did you manage them?

I've been prescribed Geodon 60mg Capsules for my bipolar disorder and have started noticing some side effects. I'm curious to hear from others who have had similar experiences. How did you handle severe side effects like abnormal heartbeat or dizziness? It's scary to think about, so I'd appreciate any insights or tips on managing these issues.

I've been on Geodon for about a year now, and the side effects have been manageable so far. I make sure to take it with food as prescribed. I have felt dizzy a few times, but it usually goes away after a bit. But I'm scared and concerned about the potential of serious side effects happening to me and how to prevent this.

I had extreme dizziness and it was horrifying. I'm going to be changing my meds. They told me that it was a side effect but it felt so severe, if anyone has any advice, let me know.

I've heard horror stories about these kinds of meds. Is it normal to feel a little off the first few weeks? It's been a rough start.

I've had some minor side effects like dizziness and drowsiness, but nothing too bad. Just take it with food and stay hydrated. Definitely worth it if it helps with your symptoms.
