hate to be the bearer of bad news, but...it can happen. i think the d2 partial agonists are supposed to be less likely to cause dysphoria and drug induced depression, but...
aripprazole is apparently a less toxic maintenance option for Schizophrenia...can effectively suppress mania in Bipolar I...but can also cause and/or exacerbate depression. problem there is..
so can seroquel. its...pretty much the nature of the beast, when dealing with the neuroleptics.
how is her overall physical health? here in the US, Symbyax--the zyprexa and prozac combo pill-- is available in generic, and they have one or two combos that are standard Prozac, lower on zyprexa, for treatment resistant depression. maybe since there's data on the exact combination, her treating physician might be willing to try that?
obviously...weight gain, diabetes, plus all the usual from any neuroleptic, ever. ugh.
id -seriously- steer clear of shock. just...my opinion.
