In reply to What doese zyprexa for BP?, posted by Ric on April 4, 2001, at 14:06:44
Ric,
I've been taking Zyprexa for about 6 months at 2.5mgs a day. I have BP II also. It's really been a wonderful med for me. I would suggest taking it a little before bedtime as it can be a little sedating especially at start up.
I hope you have as much luck with it as I have!
