Hello..
She's almost certainly right that the risk of TD is very low at such low doses of Fluanxol. Just make sure that you use the lowest effective dose. 10mg Zyprexa is a common dose to use in schizophrenia so it wouldn't be surprising if she's seen some cases of tardive dyskinesia in people taking olanzapine at these doses!
I'm glad you're stopping the Zyprexa. It sounds like you weren't that happy on it.
