> My mother has been on Zyprexa for about 45 days and seems to have lost her ability to enunciate her words. I was just wondering if anyone else has experienced the same symptoms and if the inability to enunciate words is a side effect of Zyprexa.
On a bried trial of Zyprexa I had perplexing speech and congnitive dysfunction. In addition, while driving I often blanked out and had no idea where I was, where I was going, or where I had been.
A friend of mine takes Zyprexa. After my frightening experience with it, I noticed her slow speech, her difficulty putting words together, and her blanking out in the middle of sentences. I'm sure it doesn't affect everyone this way. But I can tell you in these two cases it did indeed cause marked speech and cognitive dysfunction. JohnL
