I'm taking Serzone with Lamictal, Topamax, and Klonopin. I was taking Zyprexa but stopped it. I find that if I take it with the Serzone it relieves any start up anxiety that the Serzone my cause. I am diagnosed with bipolar II disorder.

Some people feel a bit of start up anxiety on Serzone, I believe Zyprexa augmentation will relieve this. Not a bad combo especially for anxiety and sleep disorder related symptoms, IMO.

The Serzone is an effective AD for my disorder (it doesn't drive me too manic and poop out).

This is my experience. You results may be different.

Regards,
John

Based on these comments, it sounds like Zyprexa has worked well for you ... if so, then why have you stopped taking it?

I believed the medicine (Zyprexa) may have been inducing a dystonia (muscle clenching) in my left fist.
