Zyprexa is meant to be used as an antipsychotic; mainly for schizophrenia and bipolar disorder with severe manic episodes. I wouldn t take it for insomnia. There are a lot of sedatives your doctor can prescribe you: Restoril, Rozerem, Vistaril, Lunesta... and one more drug zolpidem (brand nake zolepress) is good as it don t have hangover effects in the morning, note: please consult a good psychiatrist, and skip to another good drug . I hope you happy with information kindly rate it. thank you.
