It is a rare, but possible side effect of most antipsychotic medications.
There are also very serious side effects that can result from using Zyprexa.
The most common ones that cause problems for those taking it is severe weight gain, which often results in Type II Diabetes and extreme withdrawal symptoms when they try to stop taking it.
There are many horror stories out there from people who have used both of these medications.
My husband had severe problems when he was taking Zyprexa and he had only been on it for a short time and it was a nightmare when he stopped taking it.
So anyone who takes these types of medications needs to realize, as with any other drug, that your doctor or pharmacist never tells you, or gives you information on, all the possible side effects and dangers of taking them.
It is always best to get online and do your own research so you know what you are dealing and can make an informed decision on whether or not you should continue its use.
