I am on 60mgs at night and have noticed a lot of shakiness and sometimes I get muscle twitches. My doc said it would also help me sleep and it has done the opposite. I'm BP so I have the racing thoughts and I have been having them at night so I cant sleep until about 3AM. I also sometimes feel feverish and weak. Im pretty sure its Geodon and if Im right it sucks!

A family member had similar problems. He experienced significant improvement by taking his Geodon earlier (with dinner) rather than at bedtime. That way, the sedating side-effect was more prominent at bedtime (approx 11 pm) rather than 4 hours later (3 am) like you're experiencing. Good luck and good health!
