Re: More Worries Over Zyprexa, Seroquel, Other Antipsychotics

[Guest guest]

Oh no!!! I like seeing Don gain back some weight, but since he already has a

preexisting tendency to Hyperglycemia and hyperlippidemia this could spell

trouble. Hello Doctor, I have more to talk to you about.

Oh mercy! I sure am glad to know this up front, though.

Thanks again , and you don't get to be told you are pretty again

tonight.

Love

Imogene

linked to a variety of adverse health reactions including weight gain,

hyperglycemia, and hyperlipidemia. Science Daily reports that the current issue

of the journal Biological Psychiatry, published by Elsevier, contains a piece in

which researchers write about metabolic side effects linked to some

antipsychotics and how these effects can increase risks for cardiac-related

diseases such as diabetes and hypertension.
