i think the only thing you need to worry about is irreversible EPS ... i had EPS when i took 5 mg, but it went away after about 3 weeks...

what is really bad is if you get irreversible eps which won't go away even after you stop taking the drug... i think this is rare at 2.5 mg .. and the only cases i've heard of are from people who started to feel numbness and continued to take the medication (also higher doses or APs with higher risks of EPS)

i'd say go for it dude.. zyprexa is great when it comes to incidence of EPS / TD
