>... I had to stop the Abilify as I simply could not tolerate the akathisia. My pdoc has actually switched me to Zyprexa. I am concerned about the weight gain but it seems much better than experiencing the akathisa.
FWIW, Geodon (ziprasidone) is another AP that does not seem to contribute to weight gain. There is, however, a possible cardiac complication from Geodon.
