In reply to Long-term Zyprexa users - question, posted by Margit on November 30, 2001, at 20:01:34
I've been on Zyprexa for well over 2 years and the weight gain does stop after a few months. The problem was that I did put on better than 50 pounds with Zyprexa. Since the weight gain stopped I have been able to lose weight sometimes when I get serious about my diet. I still have another 45 pounds to lose but since August I have been able to lose 20 punds.
You can take it off but you should really try to make it throught he first 3-6 months when most of the weight gain will occur. My experience is that once you are clear of that time period the weight problem will level off.

> I have beeen on Zyprexa now for about 2 1/2 month. I gained about 15 pounds. Could any of you tell me what experiences you had with weight and how you handled it. Thanks for any responses.
