I am a newcomer to this board and I was wondering if anyone else out there experiences this strange side effect with zyprexa. I have noticed an increase in the amount of saliva I am producing. I notice this by swallowing more during the day, and occasionally wake up with drool on my pillow in the morning. I have also increased my klonopin intake as well as my zyprexa dosage and both of them have side effects of excessive salivation.

> I thought that was a side-effect of only Clozaril. I guess not. Check this out: http://www.dr-bob.org/tips/split/Excess-salivation.html
No it is also a side effect of zyprexa as well as klonopin according to some research that I have done.

I dont mean to alarm you but you may be dealing with a condition known as doginitus. You may be turning into a puppy. Well actually no I have no knowledge of such effects from zyprexa. I am currently on zyprexa myself. I usually have always dealt with a bit of dry mouth. But since being on the zyprexa that minor problem for me seems to be gone. Much easier to talk. But perhaps it's just a coincidence.> I am a newcomer to this board and I was wondering if anyone else out there experiences this strange side effect with zyprexa.

It is listed as a side effect for both klonopin and zyprexa at www.rxlist.com.
