Thanks for the information. I am taking Seroquel for ocd. I tried Zyprexa and I liked it but I could not stop eating.I hope Seroquel will work. As for Prozac and Zyprexa , they are coming out with a pill that is made up of both Prozac and Zyprexa together. It will be out this year. It sound great.

Thanks Again,
Lynne
