What is up with my Galaxy S5 battery life?

have been using lollipop 5.0 on my Samsung Galaxy s5 for a while and it is good except for the battery drain. Before I updated, my battery would last two or three days on one charge. After I updated my Galaxy, the battery life dropped dramtically. Since then, I have had to charge my Galaxy at least once a day instead of every other day before the update. Also, during the time it took for me to type this question (about 5 minutes), my battery dropped more than 5%. I was wondering if there is a way to fix the battery to be the way it was before the update or if I will have to keep charging it every day until there is a fix.
Thanks in advance

Welcome to AC. :)

What do your battery usage stats reveal as the main users of charge at the end of a day's use?

Also, after the update, did you try a Cache Partition wipe? That may be worth trying first, since it's easily done and causes no loss of personal data.
