Zyprexa or Geodon for Depression?

Posted by SLS on November 30, 2002, at 14:26:11

Hi.

I might want to switch from Zyprexa to Geodon because of weight gain. I would also like to compare the two to see which has the most potent antidepressant effect.

Any comments are welcome and appreciated.

I have never seen either used for depression, unless maybe as a secondary diagnosis. Generally, these drugs are used for psychosis, hence the term anti-psychotics. Maybe your pdoc is holding something back.........
