Geodon + Elder Person
by necronet, Oct 12, 2008 01:51PM
A relative of mine has been takin Geodon for like a month but i recently read this in the official website:
Elderly patients with dementia-related psychosis (having lost touch with reality due to confusion and memory loss) treated with this type of medicine are at an increased risk of death, compared to placebo (sugar pill). GEODON is not approved for treating these patients.
Should i stop the treatment? any advice on how to treat psicosis and dementia on elder person
PD: Is not alzheimer Dementia.
