What Is Olanzapine?

How Does Olanzapine Work?
Olanzapine belongs to a group of medications called atypical (or second-generation) antipsychotic medications. It is not entirely known how olanzapine works for the treatment of schizophrenia or bipolar disorder. It is known that the medication blocks or lessens the effects of several chemicals in the brain. These brain chemicals (such as dopamine and serotonin) may be elevated in people with schizophrenia or bipolar disorder (also known as manic depression).
Olanzapine is not a cure for bipolar disorder or schizophrenia. It only helps to control symptoms of these conditions (see Symptoms of Schizophrenia or Bipolar Disorder Symptoms).
