She told me its gonna be a replacement of zyprexa without the weight gain....because for some reason this paticular psychiatric office thinks I have problems with psychotic symptoms which really I don't think I do, maybe some wierd thoughts once and a while about the spirit relm but really no. She didnt tell me anything on how it was going to effect me exepct take it at night and that it reduces blood pressure.
Like when I take zyprexa it used to give this sedation, not like valium but it blocked and made me think of life not so bad, until the effect of my body created a resistance to it.
I'm sure that's all I know, I did google it and found out how it works...blockade of D2 and some 5TP receptors, but besdies that....i don't know much about this medication....im taking tonight...I jsut got prescibed it today so maybe Ill awnser my questions that is my really hated digestive system absorbs it.
thanks...
