This will vary wildly for people who have taken the two -- the only constants will be that Seroquel is much more sedating than Zyprexa and Zyprexa is more lipid (cholesterol) changing and can cause diabetes if a diet is not kept in check. As far as my experiences -- I still take Seroquel, mild tremor and occasional facial fasciculations. Zyprexa -- would have been great except it caused major tremor, pseudoparkinsonism, and while some have had that dissappear during treatment I was afraid it wouldn't go away. Didn't matter what dose I was on, and the lowest dose was ineffective for my problem anyhow.
So that's my story -- just trying to balance the time I take the Seroquel and keep a good sleep cycle if possible to minimize as much as possible the overwhelming sleepiness.
