Seroquel (quetiapine): Other possibilities may include Abilify or geodon (ziprasidone). Review with your doctor.

Like, but unlike: Within the same class (atypical antipsychotics), Geodon -ziprasidone- and Abilify -aripiprazole- have a more benign side effect profile, particularly in this sense. However, they may or may not work as well as seroquel (quetiapine) for a particular target symptom. You can ask this question to your dr, he will surely understand and help you.
