I've only taken it for a day or two, not long enough to cause weight gain.I've never heard of anyone taking Zyprexa prn. I want to try this but frankly I'm scared. I'm depressed and anxious while on Zyprexa, but I'm bed ridden without it.

It works, but makes me gain weight like crazy - not from eating more either. The only w/d's I have when I stop is that I stop gaining weight.I'm so sick of the Zyprexa weight gain. But I must admit for me its because my appetite gets crazy. When not on Zyprexa, my depression and anxiety cause me to rapidly lose weight. Almost anorexic. Lesser of two evils I guess.
I may add Lamictal at my next pdoc appt. Maybe Nardil down the road.
Thanks for your post.
