Is this combo safe? Just saw my doctor - he said should be ok, but may, very small may, have adverse effects on BP.
I'd rather give this a go than try Zyprexa straight away.
I was going to try Gabapentin, but he is not happy about this- first of all cause of this stupid government (and idiot Prime Minister and Treasurer!) all anti-convulsants are hard to get - for instance Klonipin can't be prescribed w/out evidence of epilepsy! The others are for that indication but still they require a bit of BS on the part of the Dr. if they are being used for off-label uses. Can you believe that!?
But he has also seen some very bad s/effects from Gabapentin.Anyway, Clonidine before Zyprexa it is - so tell us what you think comrades.

But I think I will try it...I think Zyprea + Nardil blen very well, much better than SSRI + Zyprexa.
So are you sick of the weight gain from it?
One more qstn: Before you started it, did TD scare you...does it scare you now?
How long have you been off it?
Cheers dude,
Ace.

ace,
TD to me is a side effect from heavy users. at a small dose it is totally safe. cmon you know that. and reverisble. you should not even think about TD guy. yes i got off zyprexa because of all the weight gain from that and the nardil and another drug. but try it. at least give it that....
good luck ace

> rossDude, you are right. The whole thing with TD is just my OCD running riot as usual. I am going to take it and live one day at a time. Stop worrying about small crap.
BTW man, you were a big inspiration t try Nardil, and the whole idea of me trying Zyprexa came from one of your posts - you were right about the Nardil! You will be right about Zyprexa!
Stay strong,
Ace.
