If they help you, I can see favoring them despite those troublesome long-term side effects (don't we all put up with side effects to plainly survive??!), but since they do not help you, it is probably just as well that you are not on them long-term.

PS Maybe you will have better luck with Lybalvi than with regular Zyprexa? Maybe try it for a little bit and if you start gaining weight, stop immediately? I know @HALLIEBETH87 likes her Lybalvi.


YES!! Lybalvi has changed my life yall. i get the great effects of olanazapine without gaining weight
