Tina A question

Posted by gabbix2 on March 5, 2003, at 19:13:16

Have you tried Zyprexa?
My pdoc prescribed it, two days ago. The average dose is 5-10 mgs, its mostly used as an antipsychotic. He said some people find it good for anxiety and he's pretty well run out of options for me, for the anxiety... and that is a lot of options.
Anyway he prescribed 2.5 mgs
but I only took 1/2 of that, and it worked beautifully, absolutely beautifully. I can't quite believe it as he didn't really seem sure how it would work.

It has a terrible weight gain side effect though.
Its almost guaranteed at the regular doses. However I did some research and it said that most people who are at 2.5 or under don't have the weight side effect, so my fingers are crossed.

I've heard that Geodon is supposed to be similar but without the weight gain problem, we don't have it in Canada yet though.
