For Schizophrenia "This medicine completely changed my life in the way that my voices are at ease, and I can function in society correctly. The side effects for me are severe tiredness. If I have to stay on loxapine, I will, but because of the tiredness, I am exploring my options of something else."

For Schizophrenia "Mostly allows me to sleep several hours a night and sometimes into the afternoon. Causes slowing of the metabolism, which leads to weight gain, supposedly it was supposed to be weight neutral according to my psychiatrist, but I don't believe it. Causes sedation and yawning and the need to seek out a bed to lie down on about 30 minutes after it's taken. Makes you crave sugary and high-fat foods. I do believe I hear fewer voices on it, though, but that's because it makes you sleep your life away, so you're not deficient in sleep to cause voices."

"My 12-year-old son was on this for severe behavior issues - worked nicely but had major weight gain and was very, very tired - had to stop it due to him being so tired."
