I know you aren't medical bods and you can't give medical advice and that I should talk to my GP about it, but the surgery ain't open on a Sunday evening and I can almost guarantee that I'll forget tomorrow and promise that I won't mess with me meds until I've spoken to the doc. I'm just after some peer to peer advice is all.
I take 10mg of Olanzapine every night. It works well for me but I'd like to reduce it a bit more if I can 'cos while I haven't had a psychotic episode I do still occasionally get slightly paranoid which has always been my warning klaxon for the start of a psychotic episode.
What's the next dose down from 10mg in a single tablet please? Is there a 7.5mg one or does it just go down to 5mg? Is the only way to get 7.5mg in two tablets (5mg and 2.5mg) please? I still need to take it and I think 5mg just wouldn't be quite enough to keep the psychosis totally at bay, especially when I get paranoid, but I'd like to reduce the dose again just to see if I cope OK with it.
Any ideas? Please?
Thank you!
