Geodon (Ziprasidone) is a prescription medication that helps with the treatment of agitation in people with schizophrenia and manic symptoms of bipolar disorder in adults and children aged 10 years old and above.

Geodon puts you at an increased risk of developing a condition that affects the heart rhythm, called QT prolongation. Seek medical attention right away if you start experiencing side effects, such as irregular heartbeat, dizziness, drowsiness, and fainting. 

The risk of developing QT prolongation can be further increased if you have other medical conditions or are taking other medications that increase the risk of QT prolongation. Before using Geodon medication, inform your healthcare provider about all the medications you take and if you have any of the following conditions, such as heart problems (QT prolongation, heart failure, slow heartbeat), and family history of heart problems (sudden cardiac death, QT prolongation).  

This also puts you at an increased risk of sweating less, which increases the risk of heatstroke. Avoid activities that will cause you to overheat, drink a lot of fluids, and dress lightly. Rest and cool down in case of overheating. Seek medical attention immediately if you start experiencing persistent fever, mood or mental changes, dizziness, drowsiness, or headache. 

Potassium or magnesium deficiency also puts you at an increased risk of QT prolongation. The risk can be further increased if you use water pills or diuretics, or if you have a medical condition, such as vomiting, diarrhea, or severe sweating. 

Do not drive, use machinery, or do anything that requires focus and alertness as this medication causes you to experience dizziness or drowsiness. Avoid these activities until you are certain you can perform them safely. Avoid alcohol or cannabis (marijuana) intake to avoid worsening these side effects.
