In reply to Zyprexa..it really really makes you gain weight?, posted by Fernanda on February 17, 2003, at 0:45:45
Hi Fernanda,
Everyone's reaction to Zyprexa is different. I didn't gain any weight at all on it, and I got all the way up to 40 mg! This is a very good med and I hope that you will give it a try!
Best of luck!
Dane> Hello,
> I'm sorry, I know seems this is pretty obvious but I'm really not sure if it happens on everyone. I have to take 5mg but I'm terrified as I'm already overweight :(
> I'm not even sure if this medication is for me. I was on Zoloft (still on it) and now this new doctor gave me this and...I don't know, I'm desperate.....Paxil, Prozac, Zoloft...which should I take? is zyprexa really for me? am I going nuts? :( Some doctors are really rude and tragic...I don't think I'm going nuts but they sometimes make me feel like that. Oh well, I don't want to bother you with this...just wanted to ask you if I'm going to gain loads of weight for taking a package of 14 pills of zyprexa 5mg? I mean, I've read you gain a LOT and really FAST. I'm terrified, I don't want any new problem in my life :(
