> My doc just lowered the 15mg zyprexa down to 5mg starting tonight. I was at 10mg for a couple weeks and didn't see any difference from the 15mg. So now its going to be 5mg... Wish me luck! Hope theres no problems. Looks like the anxiety is coming from wellbutrin. So since the wellbutrin is reduced down to 100mg now, I shouldn't get anxiety. I also taking 12mg x3 perphenazine. Hoping to drop zyprexa and wellbutrin. But if this does not work guess I will have to take them..
I would want to get rid of these drugs, too. Who wants to take psychiatric drugs?
I think taking away the Zyprexa and leaving the perphenazine makes a great deal of sense. It might be possible to use nortriptyline in place of Zyprexa if 5-HT2a antagonism is a necessary action in your treatment.
Good luck with your experimentation.
