well, zyprexa is a heavy duty and potent sleeping med, at least in my experience, so much so that it makes you zombieish for the next day, too. i can't answer, though, why your doctor would add the drug given its many side effects. i'm sort of wondering the same thing for my situation. i can't remember what drugs you're on, but it seems like zyprexa is in the same class or doing the same things that your other meds should cover. i'm on zoloft and prozac as ADs, haldol, seroquel and other neuroleptics, and a bunch of sleeping meds. my dr yesterday gave me a script for remeron, another AD for sleep. i don't want it, and my instinct is not to take it. how many sedating drugs, and how many antidepressants do i need? geez! is this like what you're experiencing?
