Hi everybody. I am currently tapering off Zyprexa. Have been on it for five years at 5 mg daily. I have been experiencing tingling or pins and needles on my feet and hands that switch around sides and sometimes disapears. I wouldlike to know if anybody has felt this while going off this med. Thanks

Hello, Jorge! How are you doing? Have things improved, yet?

Those types of symptoms can happen when withdrawing from pretty much any psychiatrically active medication, including this one.

You should make sure to let your doctor know about them and seek medical attention if they get severe or you feel that you are in danger.

Are there any other questions or concerns?
