This was given to my son without the psychiatrist researching interactions and/or side effects. Wondering if I should sue the pharmaceutical company or the prescribing doctor??

Zyprexa caused seizures and convulsions for me after taking it for three years. I took the smallest dose during this time. The first two years were ok. When this medication takes over it WILL destroy your life. It should be discontinued as a medicine.

I was finally given this medication after suffering with severe daily anxiety for six months. I have only been on it for a week. I worked immediately, and the anxiety is dwindling away. I agree with one of the other reviewers in that it saved my life.

My mother's psychiatrist had her on this drug to help her sleep. It worked, but now she has a hard time walking and she has several other things wrong with her that are apparently side effects of this drug.

I can't believe her doctor prescribed this pill for sleep. She has taken my mother off of it, but now my mother will probably never be able to walk right. The doctor even suggested she go to a neurologist because she thought she might have Parkinson's. It bothers me that the doctor didn't know that this drug may cause Parkinson's symptoms. I am beyond furious.

I had psychosis. I took this medication because of the psychosis and possible bipolar. I was very tired the first two weeks of use. I went from 150 pounds to 183 pounds within a month and a half of use. It helped with the psychosis, but the weight gain was not worth it. I am trying to get off of this medication.
