Overview

Olanzapine is a second-generation (atypical) antipsychotic medication primarily used to treat schizophrenia and bipolar I disorder in adults and adolescents. It is also indicated for the management of acute agitation associated with these disorders and can be used in combination with fluoxetine for treatment-resistant depression or depressive episodes in bipolar I disorder. Olanzapine acts mainly by antagonizing dopamine D2 and serotonin 5-HT2A receptors in the brain, which helps rebalance neurotransmitter activity to improve mood, thinking, and behavior. The drug is available as oral tablets (including orally disintegrating forms) and intramuscular injections[2][3][4][5].
