Zyprexa does have a dopaminergic action, but likely not the kind you're looking for. It decreases the action of dopamine, as all anti-psychotics do. If it's an increase in dopaminergic activity you're looking for, then a dopamine agonist such as Mirapex or Requip would be your best bet, probably along with some sort of stimulant since they can cause sleep attacks. I personally had amazing results with Mirapex, but the narcoleptic-like side effects forced me to discontinue it; now I may start up again, but only because I just began taking dextroamphetamine.
