You might try to disolve the quarter tablet in water then drink one half of that (or more if you want to come off slower).
Make sure you shake the solution well before consuming that.
You might also try an antihistamine like diphenhydramine at night to reaplce the antihistamine effect of zyprexa.
The issue of half life might make confuse things. Ie you may have got down to 1/4 tablet but had a higher blood level. How long were you on just 1/4 tablet?
I used taurine (an OTC amino acid with calming effects, to help olanzapine withdrawl, you can get it at health food stores)
