In reply to wellbutrin instead of zyprexa, posted by rme on July 30, 2009, at 15:40:44
Zyprexa is an antipsychotic that is is used in bipolar disorder and schizophrenia. Wellbutrin is an antidepressant. My guess is that if she was prescribed Zyprexa, Wellbutrin would not be a good replacement. It might or might work well in addition to Zyprexa, but not so much as a substitute. If possible she should look into ordering her Zyprexa from Canada, or an Indian or New Zealand pharmacy. It will be available as generic olanzapine. The cash price will be much cheaper. For example 100 of the 10 mg tablets for $109.32. I have used this pharmacy before with much sucess and savings. They are reputable.:
