Mellaril I definately know what that is,I just didn't know the generic name,I get EPS from it really bad,the only Phenothiazine that has not given me EPS is Thorazine,and that's because I won't take a high dose,and I take both cogentin,and benadryl with it.Haldol is the worse,it only takes 1 mg.of haldol,and a couple hours and EPS kicks in! I have to put Haldol,and Inapsine on my allergy chart because of how severe it gets,and how fast,even 2 mg.of risperidol put me into EPS! Seroquel,and it wasn't supposed to,but it did,my body is just sensitive to phenothiazines big time! But I got my Doctor to lower my Thorazine from 100 mg at night to 50 mg,at night,and they did blood work that day,and I haven't heard back,so if anything was wrong ,he would have called.I've been at the hospital twice this week having tests run,because now they think it may be my gallbladder! I had a HIDA scan today! Haven't got the results back yet!
