Nausea: Yes, nausea is one symptom that may occur upon withdrawal of geodon (ziprasidone). You and your practitioner are best to assess and document and symptoms. The practitioner may have to reassess and slow down the taper. Your body gets used to a medication and slow taper is always a must to ensure the least severity in withdrawal symptoms.
