Ed,
Thanks for all the help! I agree. Risperdal from my own research, and your posts, seems a safer bet.
I've also read Zyprexa is safer (and is available in an orally instantly disintegrating tablet). Normally, I'd worry about metabolic issues but it would be used infrequently. This is twice in two months we've had an episode like this.
I look forward to meeting her new doctor. I have to tone down pharma talk with doctors, they get very weird if I start talking like I do here :-)
Thanks again,
-z
