In reply to Zyprexa gives me the blah's, posted by Lawrence S. on June 25, 2001, at 11:33:18
> I gave Zyprexa a try as an augmenter. Also to stop my ruminating thoughts. After seeing how it has helped my Mom I really had high hopes. I really am hesitant to say this for fear that it may upset someone. The only word that comes close to the way I felt is, lobotomized. Lithium and Verapamil made me feel the same way. Anyone else experience this feeling or am I so far gone that nothing will help me? By the way, My Mother seems better than I have ever seen her in my life, since she has been on Zyprexa, Respiridal and Effexor combo.
I think the original PDR write up on Zyprexa said that increased suicidal ideation was a problem in 36% of patients (only schizophrenic patients.) After seeing that in print, it made me wonder how it was ever approved for anything.
