> Thats an offly low dose of zyprexa. You should try increasing it to 5. Just keep raising it till you stabilize. I take 10mg. 2.5 does not do much for me. 5 is not enough, 7.5 is almost enough, but 10 is just right. I've mainly been at that dose for 12 years, working great. I'm male, 210 lb. If you are female a lower dose might be right for you. Maybe 5 or 7.5?
I agree that raising the dosage to 5-10mg is a reasonable course of action. I find that the appearance of irritability and a progressive flattening of mood is a prelude to relapse.
