A member asked:
Taking zyprexa (olanzapine) (2.5ng) before bed. waking up feeling really tired, weak, shaky and sometimes dizzy. is this normal and when will it pass?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Side effects: It is unusual to experience these side effects. In fact, 2.5 ia a low, usually a start up dosage. I suggest to consult your prescriber to switch you to another equivalent medication. However, this is more pertinent if this is a persistent problem or just a temporary reaction to this med.
