Yes...Zyprexa (Olanzapine). The bigest problem with it is weight gain.

It depends on what you are taking it for. Abilify is prescribed for schizophrenia, bipolar mania, and recently it has been marketed for depression.

From experience I do not think the feeling produced is in any way similar to zyprexa. Abilify is a partial D2 agonist and zyprexa is a potent D2 antagonist.

From experience abilify = no appetite and akathisia

zyprexa= sedation weight gain

I have been told that the new antipsychotic saphris is very similar to abilify. It looks promising but there is a very high rate of extrapyramidal symptoms (about 20%)
