What the hell is wrong with the FDA? I wish Lilly would just go down. I live in Indianapolis and the sight of the main building makes me cringe. Zyprexa is a dangerous, dangerous drug. Posted by: Elizabeth at December 14, 2009 12:15 PMHere is where I need some clarification from Philip or people on this site who have a dx of schizophrenia. I hate Zyprexa for all the reasons this site has listed, and because I was prescribed it off label and OD'd (good enough reason for ya?!). But I thought it WAS actually indicated for schizophrenia. Is it actually not effective against the symptoms and helpful in some way? I realize that must be weighed against the metabolic dangers and zombie effect. Anyway, please educate me. Thanks. Posted by: Miranda at December 15, 2009 04:53 AMI'm bipolar and know a TON of people on zyprexa. So as I understand it-it's done on label for schizophrenia and for bipolar mania. I was on it until I had very bad side effects. The detox is a NIGHTMARE. This is not going to end well. Philip I'm providing a link to Crazymeds for Zyprexa info http://www.crazymeds.us/ Remove if necessary Posted by: Lili at December 15, 2009 09:28 AMChemical prisons instead of a bars and cement one. The Government should like this. Posted by: Mark p.s.2 at December 15, 2009 10:05 AMJust another nail in the coffin Posted by: Stephany at December 15, 2009 03:22 PMPost a comment
