Geodon, also known by its generic name ziprasidone, is an atypical antipsychotic medication primarily used to treat schizophrenia and Bipolar disorder. It works by modulating the effects of neurotransmitters in the brain, particularly serotonin and dopamine. By antagonizing serotonin 5-HT2A receptors and dopamine D2 receptors, Geodon helps to restore the balance of these chemicals, which can alleviate symptoms of psychosis and mood disorders. Additionally, it has effects on norepinephrine receptors, contributing to its overall therapeutic profile.

No! Do not mix these two together Geodon slows and depresses the nerves system so mixing together Percocet on top of that which is another nervous system depressant (and yes I know geodon is a anti-psychotic but it also depresses the nerve system) will kill you due to respiratory failure because the nerves will stop sending and receiving signals to breathe.
