> i have recently added topa to my regimen and am at only 50 mg. now...i am experiencing little to no side effects including the weight loss, but haven't expected to.
This is the dosage at which I experienced the side effects... it must be a redhead thing LOL
I mean we always seem to do things in reverse and most intensely...
at 400 mg I seem to have stopped the weight loss; have stayed at the same weight for about a month and seem to see no more loss in sight...
and the side effects don't seem to be any real problem any longer although I confess that I am drinking a lot of water to make sure that there are no kidney stone problems rearing their heads...
and I am still angry that neither the neurologist nor the pharmacist warned me of any side effects..(oh the neuro told me about the weight loss and the migraine side effects) but I had to learn of the side effects here and from my sister-in-law...
and it was my pharmacist who told me that zyprexa would cause weight gain... the doctors never warned me at all... of course they might have realised I would have refused to take it????
