Just out of interest, which causes the worst weight gain on average - Zyprexa or Nardil?
I gained 35lbs on Zyprexa. Haven't tried Nardil yet, although I do want to give it a go if I can persuade my doctor. Is the weight gain from Nardil usually as bad as that from Zyprexa??

Zyprexa also carries with it the liability to produce diabetes. Not so much with Nardil.

No. Zyprexa is far worse for metabolic side effects than NArdil. Why would you be exchanging an antipsychotic for an antidepreessant?
