Wow! How about that Lilly sales job?
Imagine you, mental patient, knowing zyprexa's generic name. Bet you startled the young doctor :)
I agree! I too have occasionally thought that some of these doctors got some nerve telling us how we feel using certain drugs when all they are going by is observation, literature, and sales reps.
I've had experiences like this numerous times:
"Heart palpitations? No, you don't have heart palpitations- it's not one of the side effects on the list." (Note in chart: patient thinks she has heart palpitations.) Etc.
> I had that exact experience with a cocky new psychiatry graduate who tried to tell me Zyprexa was a regular antidepressant like Prozac. When I corrected him he asked me how I knew that olanzapine was the generic name despite the fact that it was written in plain view on his desk top jotter and coffee mug. I did eventually take it and he refused to believe that 5mg was making me feel spaced out and drowsy. He also thought Zyprexa would cause no significant impairment in driving performance even if taken in the morning.
