Cloz is so far so good! Thank you for asking. Some drooling etc but nothing major. I am at 175 mg tonight. My psych is increasing very slowly.

I just take 200mg around 8:30 PM, so that it helps me sleep by the time the sedation kicks in. But I might need to increase the dosage. IDK.

I take 200 mgs in the morning and 300 mgs at night. I don’t really feel that sedated because I am use to it.

I am still on some olanzapine. Sorry I was unclear. My psych is taking things very slowly. I think she’s so wise. This will make things so much easier on me I think.

She has cut my olanzapine dose in half. I’m feeling less tired during the day.
