A member asked:
Does geodon (ziprasidone) cause bruxism and jaw clenching and will benztropine help alleviate these symptoms?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes and yes: though any psychotics, less so the atypical ones like Geodon, (ziprasidone) can cause such symptoms. Talk to your psychiatrist or healthcare provider about trying another antipsychotic that may not cause these dyskinesia symptoms. Thanks for trusting in HealthTap.
