Geodon (Ziprasidone): and withdrawal from Geodon (ziprasidone) may cause flu-like symptoms, though rare. Ziprasidone should be taken with food (at least 500 kcal, irrespective of fat content) for optimal and reproducible bioavailability of the administered dose. Otherwise daily levels may fluctuate. Side effects should gradually diminish. If not and intolerable, consult your prescriber. Best regards for relief.
