Re: Zyprexa rx Anxious Depression. Does it poop out?

In reply to Zyprexa rx Anxious Depression. Does it poop out?, posted by BobS. on June 9, 2005, at 20:09:16

> After a year and one half on various meds some of which are not listed below, I finally gave in to trying Zyprexa at 2.5 mg per day for anxious depression. Within two days I felt normal and stayed that way for nine weeks. During the nine weeks I reduced some of the meds from the cocktail listed below. Then all of a sudden I appear to heading back to the symptoms prior to the start of Zyprexa. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi Bob.

You might as well try adding back one or two drugs at a time and see if you can recapture the antidepressant effect. Looking at what you had taken, I think I would add back the cytomel and Paxil.
