I take olanzapine (zyprexa) i take it at night too. besides the weight gain and a bit of a hangover in the morning, I love it!

I havent been this calm and relaxed in so long. I take citalopram as an antidepressant and the zyprexa as a mood stabilizer. works fantastically together.

once in a blue moon i need help sleeping and I pop a diazapam. but not that often.

I took this, it helped me a lot but....

You are going to have to SERIOUSLY pay attention to what you are putting into your mouth.

This drug turned me into a food devouring machine. I could literally consume an entire large pizza (180 lb man) and not feel at all satisfied. I gained 20 lbs. in 1 month and had to come off of it because of that.

it is not that this drug changes your metabolism or anything. This drug interferes with your body's desire for food.

So theoretically if you eat the same amount of food, you could not gain any weight. I was absolutely unable to control myself; I am a pig without it anyway.

I took zyprexa and I had some side effects for the first week or two. I was a bit afraid to drive, but I was also on a higher dose. Those went away. I did find it brought me down a bit too much, but that might have been the dosage. It did help with sleep though, and that was a big issue for me. I didn't experience the hangover that solara did.

I hope it works for you.

I took Zyprexa for a couple of years. it worked really well. But I gained a lot of weight. Its a gdood drug, but not for me.
