Weird effect after taking Fanapt?!


Question: Weird effect after taking Fanapt?
Fanapt is an anti-psychotic used for schizophrenia, my doctor prescribed it to me recently and it makes my eyes feel heavy and electric or something, like they aren't mine. I haven't read this in any list of side effects, but does anyone know of this happening or how to help it? I don't have schizophrenia, btw.

Thanks.

Answers:

You can look it up by name (Fanapt), type in side effects.

In studies, side effects of Fanapt included:
Dizziness -- i
Drowsiness --
Muscle spasm
Pink eye, blurred vision
Confused
Abnormal Movements of Face Muscles

I think the drowsiness, blurred vision and maybe muscle spasm might give the effect you describe. There is no way to change the action of the drug, but perhaps the unacceptable feelings will

You will have to go back and talk to your doctor if you find the way it affects you unacceptable. Nobody but your doctor can change the dose or suggest how to avoid the way it affects your eyes.
