Olanzapine [CAS: 132539-06-1] is a thienobenzodiazepine derivative. It functions as a histamine antagonist, muscarinic antagonist, serotonin antagonist, dopaminergic antagonist, antiemetic, second-generation antipsychotic, and serotonin uptake inhibitor. It contains benzodiazepines, N-methylpiperazines, and N-arylpiperazines.

Olanzapine: Use and Commercial Availability  

Olanzapine’s use orally and intramuscularly treats persistent schizophrenia and other mental diseases, such as bipolar disorder, including mixed or manic episodes in patients. Olanzapine also has approval for the short-term treatment of acute manic or mixed episodes associated with bipolar I disorder in adults when combined with lithium or valproate.
