Is he taking generic zyprexa? I found there to be a difference between the two, and all the different generics. I think he needs to go up in dose, maybe 20 mg. Or do what I did and add in something else, like perphenazine. This combo has me fairly stable right now. He could also go back on zoloft at a higher dose, if that was working before. I found that I had to stick with a particular brand of generic, teva for the zyprexa, and sandoz for the perphenazine. Once you do this give it a couple of months. I also found that I had a period where I just sorted out my problems blew off steam and stabilized. My pdoc was trying to lower doses of my meds to see if I needed them because I had been stable for a while. Well I went off the deep end and thought I would loose it. I started smoking pot, just to get by, and most importantly sleep and control anger. Ayear later and I'm back up in my doses and stablizing again.
