Dear Alley,

Zyprexa (olanzepine) is an atypical antipsychotic.

It may be used to treat a variety of symptoms such as psychosis, agitation and is under study for treating bipolar disorder.

The dosage varies depending on the indication and severity of illness.

Side effects also vary from mild sedation and weight gain to dystonia and tardive dyskinesia.

For more details on Zyprexa consult your physician or pharmacist.


Sincerely,


HFHS M.D.-SW
