Docors...IDIOTS!!!! Tapering off Zyprexa 2.5

Posted by ace on October 22, 2004, at 1:05:58

Well I started Risperidone 1mg nocte....
I was stupid-- i listened to doctors!!!
Never my the fact that I had been on Zyprexa 2.5 10 months, they advised switching straight away. Within 4 days on Risperidone (due to Zyprexa w/drawal) I waas crying all the time, ready to pull out of uni, and insomnia.
Now, wouldn't it have been wise to start me on 0.5 Risperidone whilst tapering off Zyprexa
ie
Day 1.- Zyprexa 2.5, Risperisone 0.5
Day 2. No Zyprexa, Risperidone 0.5
Day 3. Zyprexa 2.5, Risperidone 0.5

and so on, until the spaces between each Zyprexa dose got larger and larger and I was remaining stable???

Im my own doctor from now on..........
Ace
Nardil- 60
Zyprexa- 2.5
Xanax 2
(BTW, thanks God, after 2 days back on Zyprexa I am starting to live again, in a week or so I will begin the Zyprexa/Risperidone cross taper again)
