My doctor simply refuses to take me off of it. I don't have bipolar nor schizophrenia. How can I safely wean myself off of this drug?
I really need help getting off zyprexa 10 mg on my own?

Hey katherine,
I must ask why you want to get off the Zyprexa? Why do you suppose the doctor refuses to take you off it? We want to do what is best for you and I for one am reluctant to advise you how to taper off the Zyprexa if it goes against the doctor's orders. You can't just stop it though.
Best wishes,
Laurie
