I was given Zyprexa instead of Saphris after 6 months, Ask an Expert

Medical Advice

I was given Zyprexa instead of Saphris after 6 months taking it and gaining 30+ lbs.! But over 5 days my hunger is out of control. I'm not thinking Zyprexa is the answer. I hear great things about Geodon. Does anyone know anything personally? This weight is depressing. I'm also taking Topamax to combat the weight. Too early to tell yet. I want to be hopeful. Please help with any insight.Is Geodon a weight neutral med for bipolar disorder?
