Tracy (Mermaid16) last logged in back in Oct 2019 so probably won't see your post.
I am also contemplating the same change. If you changed, did you go through withdrawals? Thanks a lot!
What are you taking olanzapine (Zyprexa) for and why do you want to switch to periciazine (Neulactil)?
Switching from olanzapine to periciazine can be done either overnight if the olanzapine dose is <=10mg, or by a short cross taper for higher doses. In both cases any withdrawal symptoms are usually mild and short lived.
