Parnate and zyprexa

Posted by cbwarejr on October 30, 2003, at 21:43:34

My wifes dad who suffers from life long depression is helped by Zyprexa.

She takes parnage 15mg in the am. SHe was thinking of Zyprexa but is horrified if she would gain any weight.

Any thoughts of what the result would be if she took Zyprexa say every two days.

I wouldn't recommend that. I would say take a low dose- 2.5mg- daily and be very vigilant to the weight problem. She is not guaranteed to put on weight- not everyone does but a lot.
