Apparently, Eli Lilly and Co, the people who make Zyprexa, are in some deep doo doo. I know that bipolar people are prescribed it but the FDA didn't approve Zyprexa for treating dementia yet there is sumthin shady going on.

Part of the story in that link says


A recent lawsuit claims that Zyprexa’s makers, the Ely Lilly & Company, are accused of marketing Zyprexa to doctors as a treatment option for psychotic symptoms related to dementia.Zyprexa is an anti-psychotic medication that is primarily used to treat bipolar and schizophrenic patients in order to help reduce the symptoms of psychosis. However, it had not been FDA-approved to treat dementia, according to a Harvard Medical School report published in 2004.

anyone know ppl w/ dementia that were prescribed zyprexa?
