My ten year old son with pdd-nos has been on zyprexa for over two years. He was on anafranil alone when his doctor added zyprexa. He was having extreme tantrums and rages. We have just weaned him off anafranil because I began to talk to other parents whose kids on anafranil had also had rages, tantrums etc. I began to wonder if the anafranil were the reason for the severity of his tantrums and we had put him on zyprexa because of the anafranil. He did well with the zyprexa but has gained an amazing amount of weight and I no longer can just watch him become so unhealthily overweight. Has anyone experienced taking their child off zyprexa? What can we expect? Did you find another medicine to help with less side effects. Thanks
