In reply to Zyprexa and addiction - information please!, posted by jms600 on May 10, 2004, at 17:14:39
I don't believe that Zyprexa is connected with addiction in any way, however a person will exhibit withdrawal symptoms if taken off Zyprexa like any other AD or AP. It works wonders correcting delusions, auditory hallucinations, and other active and passive psychotic symptoms. It is also used for anxiety, depression, social withdrawal and insomnia. My son takes 20mg a day for schizophrenia (undifferentiated type). What has really helped him come out of his shell though is Zoloft.
