I take zyprexa to ease the symptoms of schizophrenia that I
experience. Unfortunately the side effects of zyprexa caused my cholesterol
level to go up. I was on a medication that countered the zyprexa side effects.
This medication got my cholesterol levels down to a healthy range. I had been
on this med since December of 2011.
In July of 2012 my decided to take me off the cholesterol
med on a trial basis. She said that she had a hunch that my diet and exercise
were sufficient to keep my cholesterol down. I went off the med and got blood
work done within a few days. I also got another test about 1 month after the
first and my cholesterol levels are still healthy. I am very happy that I am
able to maintain healthy cholesterol levels without the use of medication.
