In reply to 2.5 mg zyprexa - still too much!, posted by Doo on March 28, 2001, at 8:29:58
No, that dosing schedule is not alright. You need to take at least 2.5 mg HS in order to keep blood levels up. I think the reason you feel so tired every day is simply a symptom of your other disorders, and will go away soon. People eventually get used to Zyprexa and its cousins Risperdal and Seroquel. BTW, I took 10 mg of Zyprexa for three months and never had any of the sedation or weight gain that others have experienced.
> Hello. I may give zyprexa a try, but I find the minimal dose still pretty high, considering the fact that poeple with severe psychotic symptoms benefit from it at doses such as 7.5 or 10 mg. I don't want to mess too much on my cns, so I thought of taking one 2.5 tablet every two days. Would that be "all right", considering it's pharmacodynamic properties? What about one every three days?
