Zyprexa gives you muscle spasms and abdominal fat but are they related? I'm sick of being fat and sometimes these spasms are huge!

I wouldn't think fat would contribute to muscle spasms per se. Anybody know differently?

Zyprexa is notorious for weight gain despite dieting.

Muscle spasms .. Maybe Z, low potassium levels certainly cause spasms.

If its a recent onset , have you had any medication changes for any health issue?

I dunno, maybe call your Pdoc and ask
