In reply to Restarting Zyprexa????, posted by twinb on October 11, 2005, at 19:44:40
Hi twinb
i was on zyprexa about two years ago for about 6 months. went off it and restarted this feb. at same dosage and it works great. the first time i was on it i didn't gain any weight, in fact lost a few pounds. but this time i gained 25 pounds. s@cks, but my hubby says he'd rather have me fat and happy then the way i was before. (strong dysphoric mania)
zyprexa is a major tranquilizer so i would guess that some of the other meds may be inducing the up phase (lexapro? maybe even the lamictal).
best wishes
b2c.
