Hi Bob12,I'm not sure if the side effects you're experiencing are the result of Zyprexa interacting with Vitamin D. But I've been taking 2000 IU daily along with my other Vitamins without any problems.
I do have sleep issues, but it's associated with high caffeine intake and emotional stuff. And the occasional dry mouth is caused by working out without drinking enough water.
Maybe you could lower the dose and makeup the rest by increasing vitamin D rich foods and sunlight exposure?
Are you taking any other meds and vitamins?
