  • Description

    Olanzapine is a medication that operates in the brain to treat bipolar disorder and schizophrenia, alleviating symptoms such as delusions, hallucinations, and manic episodes associated with bipolar disorder. It is part of a category of drugs called atypical antipsychotics. These drugs restore the balance of neurotransmitters in the brain, and scientists believe excess dopamine levels in the brain are responsible for positive symptoms of schizophrenia, namely hallucinations and delusions. By binding to dopamine receptors in the brain and blocking stimulation, olanzapine can effectively treat these symptoms. It also affects other neurotransmitter systems in the brain, such as serotonin and norepinephrine, which can contribute to its therapeutic effects, as imbalances in these systems can propagate the development of symptoms of schizophrenia and bipolar disorder. Olanzapine's exact mechanism of action is not entirely understood, but it is thought to alleviate the array of symptoms due to its effect on multiple neurotransmitters. Research into how it exerts its effects has greatly increased our understanding of its operation as a mental health treatment.
