Motoko Posted August 22, 2021 Share Posted August 22, 2021 I’m in the midst of a switch from Zyprexa to Latuda, and I’m having the worst time sleeping. My sleep began to be affected by the reduction in Zyprexa right away, and since coming off of it entirely nearly three weeks ago, I’ve barely slept at all each night despite being bone tired. A weird restless anxiety keeps me from going to sleep: sometimes I have to get up and move around to get it to dissipate. I know from internet reading that coming off Zyprexa can result in insomnia, though how long it lasts is less clear. Has anyone else switched off Zyprexa and had this issue with the insomnia and restless anxiety? How long was it a problem for you? Thanks.

dancesintherain Posted August 22, 2021 Share Posted August 22, 2021 I'll be following because I'm dealing with the same thing. My pdoc increased my gabapentin dosage last time I talked with her, but it didn't do much. Mine isn't as bad as yours....I still get some sleep. But the delayed sleep onset is disturbing.
