Thanks DuckDuckGoose,
As I said - I'm very happy to be proven wrong...! I'll see if I can get back on it too, although the efficacy shown is not great & I hope it applies for weight gained from other meds too :)
Olanzapine without Ranitidine = BMI increase of 1.19 at 16 weeks
Olanzapine with 300mg Ranitidine = BMI increase of 0.34 at 16 weeks
Olanzapine with 600mg Ranitidine = BMI decrease of 0.6 at 16 weeks
Cheers..!
Molybdenum.
