The switch was made because of lingering complaints about Zyprexa side effects such as difficulty swallowing plus the recommendation of a new and possibly better med. He was taking 5 mg for a month prior to upping it to 10 mg. He did OK on the 5mg but was beseiged by problems after dropping Zyprexa including flu symptoms and some kind of zone out attack. He was better less than a week after continuing Zyprexa but it scared him badly and I believe it was the cold turkey not the Saphris.
