> Hi:
> I just forgot to say in regard to the dosage of Zyprexa.
> In my opinion, .... 5 mg Zyprexa is quite 'High' dosage as seeing you're on other AP, Abilify. Try to cut it down to 2.5 mg. that may help you NOT to get sedation from the Zyprexa. Still may get one, but less sedation.True it may be a bit high, but my symptoms are very bad sometimes. Plus I take it at night with the Halcion to help with sleep.

> The other med., 'Halcion,' ... in my opinion also, if this med. offerring you 'good relief,' then you'd better to stick with this med. Because, there are 'pros' and 'cons' no matter what med. you're taking. No 'Perfect' med. on the market so far. However, as a 'back-up' med., try to remember 'Serzone,' because this med. is quite reputable among those who are NOT able to tolerate SSRIs and all other form of the med. Practically, this med. might be 'last med./resort' to find a relief you need.Serzone.. I'll remember that. So far, the Zyprexa is working out. Feelng a little sedated of course but hopefully it'll work out in time. I like this one. Hopefully it will make me normal.
Thanks for your input.
