By Drugs.com: "using olanzapine together with cannabidiol may increase side effects such as dizziness, drowsiness, confusion, and difficulty concentrating". By PDR: "monitor for excessive sedation and somnolence during coadministration of cannabidiol and olanzapine. Concurrent use may result in additive CNS depression". There is no info about increased or decreased zyprexa level due to interaction

First please have a complete physical examination to know if you have an illness. If not, your medication should be managed by a Psychiatrist. If you are not confident in your Doctor please see another for a second opinion. Please see a Clinical Psychologist with expertise in multiple types of psychotherapy to help.
