Guest guest Posted January 20, 2006 Report Posted January 20, 2006 Hi H. Thanks for letting us know your history in coming off Zyprexa. As I mentioned before I have a lot of experience with this drug at different doses and speeds of withdrawal. You said you were already in withdrawal on 1/4 of the 2.5 pill. Therefore I suggest reinstating it at half a 2.5 mg pill. Sounds like you aleady have a pill cutter. IF that relieves your symptoms to the point where they are manageable, you will need to stay there a minimum of 3 weeks, possibly a month. You will know when you have stablized again. IF you get no relief within 2-3 days, then you can try going back to 3/4 of the 2.5 pill. You would simply take a half and a quarter. If that doesn't work you may end up back on 2.5 mg. Once you have been stable for 3-4 weeks, then we can talk about how to taper slowly from there. Believe me when I say Zyprexa withdrawal is not something you can tough out and get through in a few days or weeks. If you handle it properly, you can come off it successfully and get your life back.
