Zyprexa (Olanzapine) antipsychotic medication and Valium withdrawal


Recommended Posts

Has anyone used the antipsychotic Zyprexa while tapering off Valium.  I use 2.5mg - 5mg about twice a week when I’m struggling.  It helps with restlessness and the intrusive thoughts but I have read that it mildly affects the gaba receptors.  I have underlying conditions of PTSD and chronic anxiety.

Yes and other SSRI and as you say it helps alot with restlessness. 

I don't take it more then a few days and let it rest for a few days.
