In reply to Fourth day on Zyprexa...do the side-effects pass?, posted by BIGDaddyachmed69 on March 6, 2004, at 17:15:44
I took 10 mg zyprexa for about 5 years. Zyprexa is very theraputic. The dreams and all the other side-effects you become used to and they are more tolerable. I lived a very normal life on the zyprexa for the 5 years, now I'm coming off the high dose to 5 mg, the bad dreams are going away, and I feel great and normal again. I probably would not have made it through the first 5 years with out that dose. True zyprexa can take away from socializing, that I noticed, I had good freinds the hole way, but I didn't have as easy a time convaying what was on my mind, socialy. The bast thing for the dreams is to get out and do stuff dayly and force your self out of bed on no more than 8 hours sleep, you realy will be fine once you are up, if not lower the dose. I also suggest drinking caffine in the day. Especialy the morning first thing.
Any other questions I would be happy to answer.
