Dizzy, zyprexa withdrawal?

We lowered zyprexa, from 40mg to 20 and this whole week I feel dizzy

Have you checked your blood pressure?

I had terrible withdrawal when I went from 20mg to 0mg. I was very sick for a few weeks. It was worth coming off it though. It made me a zombie and I put on 35 kilos.

Thank you guys. I will see my psychiatrist in a week. I wish he could lower abilify too

Honestly. If it continues I’d check in with a regular doc and just get your blood pressure checked. I would be pretty certain that it would be the reduction but always pays to check the so called normal things. Doesn’t hurt.

Hello. I also withdrawn from Olanzapine and experienced severe depression for 2 days and them my mood got back to normal. Although I don’t know if I came off it completelly because I was injected with 300 mg and this dosage is for 2 or 4 weeks and it’s only been 3 weeks now since I’m injected but already had withdrawal. Hope I got off it completelly…
