User Reviews for Zyprexa oral

This medication makes me so groggy.l I'm suppose to take 3 tablets at night and 1 in the morning. i find myself falling asleep at my desk. The tables are only 5 mg. i cant function on this medication.

It helped a great deal during a major depression when anxiety and insomnia were a problem. I do want to take it long as the warnings were frightening and I am trying to keep my weight down.

It helps me sleep through the night. My mood is much better, I am able to get more things done. Before I would stay in bed until 1:00 pm. I suffer with Fibromyalgia.

My son takes!

I've spent the last 3 years battling with depression brought on by my mothers long illness and death. 3 weeks on zyprexa and Im feeling like a new person. My creativity has come back and I also have been laughing. My family has also commented on my moods.

I was prescribed Zyprexa 5mg 1x/day nearly 10 years ago to treat bipolar disorder. I have had no side effects and the medication has worked well with my other medications. I would also strongly recommend that often times have to give psychiatric drugs 8-12 weeks before they reach a therapeutic level to even work, so give them a chance. Additionally, don't expect everything from your medications; you should also be involved in counseling and group therapy for an adequate time ( I still go regularly to a psychiatrist and to a therapist) to better help you understand whatever disorder you've been diagnosed with and help you cope with the challenges that go along with it.Read More Read Less

Severe allergic reaction My daughters throat started closing

HORRIBLE DRUG!!! I was put on it along with Prozac to treat my depression. I gained 10 pounds in 2 &1/2 days!!! Only one the 2d day of taking it, I had a "breakdown", and flushed those little demons down the toilet!!

i get the shakes and am tired

Just started treatment no side effects very hopeful this medication will help

Seemed to keep me stable and in the middle of my mood cycle for longer then either seroquel or lamictal.

i have problems sleeping, and it relaxes me, My mind is empty with worries I have on my mind in everyday living\\

this treatment is the worst/ it causes the systems of the illness]instead of helping you.

I can't tell anything.

I am a mannic depressed and have mood swings also. I find zyprexa that works like a miracle for me. I am calm and can think better than without it. Thank you and the company for this amazeing drug that works. I am from the state of indiana.

I had been taking antidepressants for several years with breakthrough depression. With zyprexa added to my treatment my depression is more under control. However the cost when samples are not available or insurance prevents me from yaking it sometimes.

I was having severe mood fluctuations and was given Zyprexa. My mood changed immediately and I started running three miles every day (it had been over two years since I did any regular exercise and never enjoyed it), became more talkative and outgoing, and had a new hope for my life. Unfortunately, it only took one month for me to gain a quick 23 pounds! Four years later and still struggling with a variety of pills, I tried it again. Again, I felt the best, but gained another 19 lbs. in three weeks. It's three years later and I have yet to lose the weight or find something that works as well. Read More Read Less
