Zyprexa makes you eat like a horse. I feel like the fat kid at the pie eating contest in the movie "Stand By Me" Zyprexa Zyprexa

I gained some too. They say it causes diabetes, but I was diabetic before I started taking it. I quit taking it because I found it to be too sedating.

I gained 5 pounds a month on this medication. After 10 lbs it was too much for me. I decided to try other medications from this group before I settled on having the permanent munchies. I even would get up and eat in the middle of the night.

Yeah, a lot of people gain weight on this med. It's a pity especially if it works. Zyprexa
