Hi Z
interesting to know.
what i ended up doing was just calling around to the different pharmacies (many, not all) and got the mfg of their olanzapine generic.
then i look them up online, sometimes i get lucky, sometimes not.
I was able to find a brand that is the approved generic of Lilly. called PRASCO.
-i took 5mg tonight. (about 3 hours ago).
i may be nuts but i swear its workingb already... althought the brand always worked for me within 24 hours.
But i guess what i noticed as i've been on my computer i suddenly realized i was smiling. i was enjoying the music i was listening to and a new background came on my computer and i liked it.
ALSO, my body feels different. lighter. i dont feel like i have cinder blocks for arms and legs anymore...anyway, its almost 1 so i'd better try to sleep.
Good to hear from you Z.
As always, Thnk you for your input!
