Just curious John, what dose are you currently taking? I was given zyprexa when manic at 20mg/day- it worked very well- then reduced to 15 once things were settled down. I gained a great deal of weight on it in a month, and for an ex-bulemic that's playing with fire. I heard on the lower dosage end- 2.5, 5mg/day people don't have this side effect. The problem is it doesn't do anything for me at that dose. Take care, Judy
