Should be ok, but..: Since prescription lithium carbonate is safe to take with Geodon (ziprasidone), (ziprasidone) I don't see why lithium orotate would be a problem to take with Geodon (ziprasidone) as well. Just be careful as lithium orotate is not approved by the FDA for the treatment of any medical condition and one study suggested it might actually hurt the kidneys.
