I'm glad they have drugs like Zyprexa now to treat schizophrenia and psychosis. Patients had been unwilling to take the old drugs because of their side effects. It's difficult enough to persuade/encourage mentally ill friends/family members to seek treatment, and then they drop off treatment and their conditions deteriorate because they don't want to tolerate the painful side effects. Schizophrenia is indeed a devastating condition.

I also like PFE mainly because of their pipeline. Don't know how much of a competition their new drug Zeldox will be to Zyprexa, but they (PFE) have a terrific sales force.
