Don't let people's posts on Zyprexa convince you to close the door on a viable treatment option for you. People rarely post something good about a particular drug; rather, they post to complain about it. Zyprexa is perfectly safe.

Zyprexa has been prescribed to over 6 million patients in 84 countries worldwide since its market entry in 1996.

The safety of Zyprexa, has been established in multiple 6-week trials at doses of 5 to 20 mg. Extrapyramidal side effects and vital sign changes were negligible, and elevations in prolactin and hepatic levels were mild.

Persons with epilepsy combine anticonvulsants all the time. I myself take three: Gabitril, Neurontin, and Zonegran--and all for unipolar depression.

Its very well tolerated but more known as an anxiolytic than an antidepressant.

Please look into Pramipexole or Bromocriptine.
