> When antidepressants haven't worked, either Zyprexa and/or a psychostimulant may target the chemistry that the antidepressants missed. Zyprexa does indeed work in depression. In the mood stabilizer category Lamictal might be considered.

Questions:Is it necessary to use a low dose of Zyprexa to obtain an antidepressant response? Will the antidepressant effect disappear at a higher dose? What is the dose range suggested?
I tried Zyprexa back in September. I was started at 10 mg/day. I felt quite an improvement within the first few days, but it faded and eventually disappeared. I discontinued it at this point.
Thanks.
