Summary
Olanzapine is among the more extensively studied second-generation antipsychotics (SGAs), partly due to its approval 25 years ago (1996), and also due to its penchant for significant metabolic adverse effects [9, 10]. Olanzapine distinguished itself by its efficacy profile (Figure 15.1), combined with lower rates of hyperprolactinemia and neurological adverse effects than first-generation antipsychotics (FGAs) and risperidone [11]. In the US Clinical Antipsychotic Trials of Intervention Effectiveness (CATIE) schizophrenia study, the primary outcome measure was time to all-cause discontinuation, and olanzapine outperformed other antipsychotics in phase 1 [12].
