In reply to starting Zyprexa, what can I expect?, posted by cybercafe on August 21, 2002, at 19:30:35
<<just started zyprexa 5mg for BP II anxiety, agitation, concentration, stability? ...
i think zyprexa is supposed to have the lowest incidence of movement disorders
took my first dose, found it really hard to get out of bed ... a bit sedated afterward
any idea if these side effects (sedation) last or not.. if so, when do you notice them improving? >>
I found that I would have to force myself out of bed on 10Zp. You might feel kind of out of it during the day. It works for all the things you listed. It also slows your movement, sometimes more than you want. The side effects don't improve, you just learn to deal with them.
