I was on that combo for a while and when zyprexa was added it significantly helped my depression and anxiety, and cleared my head. As for weight gain, I think the major cause is increased appetite but zyprexa does interfere with some metabolic proccesses which also probably contribute. My best advice is to watch what you eat and exercise from the get go, cause it has been hard for me to lose the weight.
