    Pharmacodynamics:

    Pharmacodynamic effects

    Olanzapine is antipsychotic,antimanic and mood-stabilizing agent with a broad pharmacological profile due to influence on several receptor systems.

    In pre-clinical studies, affinity for various receptors (Ki <100 nmol / l) was established: 5-HT2A/ 2C-, 5-HT3-, 5-HT6-serotonin, D1-, D2-, D3-, D4-, D5dopamine, M1-5-muscarinic cholinergic receptors; α1-adreno- and H1-histamine receptors. In animal studies evaluating the effect of olanzapine on behavior, the latter exhibited antagonism with respect to serotonin, dopamine and m-cholinergic receptors, consistent with the receptor binding profile.

    In vitro olanzapine showed greater affinity for 5-HT2-serotonin than D2dopamine receptors, and a large 5-HT2- rather than D2-activity on in vivo models. In electrophysiological studies it is shown that olanzapine selectively reduced the activity of mesolimbic (A10) dopaminergic neurons, with little influence, at the same time, on striatal (A9) pathways involved in motor functions.

    Olanzapine reduced conditional avoidance (in the test for antipsychotic activity) at doses lower than those that cause catalepsy (an effect indicative of motor adverse reactions).Unlike some other antipsychotic drugs, olanzapine raises the answer in the "anxiolytic" test.

    In a study in healthy volunteers with a single dose (10 mg) followed by positron emission tomography olanzapine more was associated with 5-HT2A-, rather than D2receptors. In addition, according to the results of a study in patients with schizophrenia using single-photon emission computed tomography, it was found that patients who responded to olanzapine, there was a low association with striatal D2receptors in comparison with others.

    Clinical Effects

    In two of the two placebo-controlled clinical trials and two out of three comparative clinical trials involving more than 2,900 patients with schizophrenia who had both productive and negative symptoms, the use of olanzapine led to a statistically significant decrease in the severity of both types of disorders.

    In an international double-blind comparative study involving 1481 patients with schizophrenia, schizoaffective and associated disorders and associated with these conditions, symptoms of depression(mean score on the Montgomery-Asberg scale for assessing depression of 16.6), a prospective secondary analysis of changes in the mood score at the end of the study compared with baseline showed a statistically significant (p = 0.001) improvement in patients with olanzapine (-6.0) as compared with haloperidol (-3.1).

    The use of olanzapine for three weeks in patients with a manic or mixed episode with bipolar disorder was more effective in reducing the manifestation of manic manifestations compared with placebo and valproate semitriya (diwalprox). Also olanzapine showed comparable efficacy with haloperidol by the proportion of patients who achieved symptomatic remission with respect to mania and depression at 6 and 12 weeks of use. The use of olanzapine at a dose of 10 mg as part of combination therapy in combination with lithium or valproic acid for at least two weeks resulted in a greater reduction in the manifestation of mania than monotherapy with lithium or valproic acid after six weeks of administration.

    In a 12-month clinical trial of relapse prevention in patients with a manic episode who achieved remission with olanzapine and subsequently randomized to olanzapine or placebo, a statistically significant superiority of olanzapine over placebo in achieving a primary endpoint, a recurrence of bipolar disorder, was shown. It was also shown that olanzapine was superior to placebo in preventing both manic and depressive episodes.

    In another 12-month clinical study on the prevention of recurrence in patients with a manic episode who achieved remission with olanzapine in combination with lithium preparations and subsequently randomized to monotherapy with olanzapine or lithium, it was shown that olanzapine statistically not inferior in effectiveness to the lithium drug in terms of reaching the primary endpoint-recurrence of bipolar disorder (olanzapine group - 30%, group of lithium preparation - 38.23%, p = 0.055).

    In an 18-month clinical trial of combined therapy with olanzapine in combination with a normotimic agent (a lithium drugor valproic acid) in patients with a manic or mixed episode, there was no statistically significant superiority in long-term combination therapy over lithium or valproic acid monotherapy with respect to delaying the recurrence of bipolar disorder, determined according to diagnostic criteria (syndromes).

    Use in children

    The experience with olanzapine in adolescents (ages 13-17) is limited to studies of its short-term efficacy in schizophrenia (for 6 weeks) and mania associated with type 1 bipolar disorder (within 3 weeks) in less than 200 subjects. Olanzapine was used in a flexible dosing regimen (from 2.5 to 20 mg per day). On the background of olanzapine therapy, adolescents had a more pronounced increase in body weight compared with adults. Changes in the content of total cholesterol, LDL cholesterol, triglycerides and prolactin (see the sections "Special instructions" and "Side effect") in adolescents were more pronounced than in adults. There is no information on the stability of the effect of olanzapine; There is only limited information on the long-termsafety (see sections "Special instructions" and "Side effect").

    Pharmacokinetics:

    Absorption

    After oral administration olanzapine well absorbed, its maximum concentration in the plasma is achieved after 5-8 hours. Food does not affect absorption. Absolute bioavailability when taken orally compared with intravenous administration was not determined.

    Distribution

    The association of olanzapine with plasma proteins is 93% (in the concentration range 7-1000 ng / ml). Olanzapine predominantly binds to albumin and α1 acid glycoprotein.

    Biotransformation

    Olanzapine is metabolized in the liver by conjugation and oxidation. The main circulating metabolite is 10-N-glucuronide, which does not penetrate the blood-brain barrier. Isozymes CYP1A2 and CYP2D6 are involved in the formation of N-desmethyl- and 2-hydroxymethylmetabolites; in animal studies, both metabolites showed significantly less pharmacological activity in vivo than olanzapine. The main pharmacological activity of the drug is due to the initial compound - olanzapine.

    Excretion

    After oral administration, the average terminal half-life of olanzapine in healthy volunteers depends on age and sex.

    In healthy elderly (65 years and older), compared with non-obese subjects, the average half-life increased (51.8 vs. 33.8 hours) and the clearance decreased (17.5 vs 18.2 l / h). The pharmacokinetic variability in the elderly corresponded to the range of non-elderly. In 44 patients with schizophrenia older than 65 years, the use of olanzapine in doses of 5-20 mg / day did not lead to differences in the profile of adverse events.

    The average half-life in women compared with men is slightly increased (36.7 vs. 32.3 hours), and the clearance is lower (18.9 vs 27.3 l / h). However, the safety profile of olanzapine in female patients (n = 467) is comparable to that of male patients (n = 869).

    Renal insufficiency

    In patients with renal insufficiency (creatinine clearance <10 ml / min), in comparison with healthy volunteers, significant differences in mean half-life (37.7 vs. 32.4 h) or clearance (21.2 vs 25 l / h) are not significant it was noted. A study of the material balance showed that approximately 57% of radiolabeled olanzapine is found in urine, mainly in the form of metabolites.

    Smoking

    Smokers with mild hepatic insufficiency increased the average half-life (39.3) and decreased clearance (18 l / h) similar to non-smoking healthy subjects (48.8 h and 14.1 l / h, respectively).

    In non-smokers, compared to smokers (men and women), the average half-life increased (38.6 vs. 30.4 h), and the clearance decreased (18.6 vs 27.7 l / h).

    The plasma clearance of olanzapine is lower in the elderly, compared with younger individuals; in men, compared with women; and non-smokers compared to smokers. However, the contribution of age, sex and smoking to the clearance and half-life of olanzapine is small compared with the overall interindividual variability.

    In a study involving individuals of European, Japanese and Chinese origin, no differences in the pharmacokinetics of olanzapine have been established.

    Children

    Teenagers (13-17 years). The pharmacokinetics in adolescents and adults are similar. According to clinical studies, the average exposure of olanzapine in adolescents is approximately 27% higher than in adults. Demographic differences between adults and adolescents include lesser average body weight and lower prevalence of smoking among adolescents. These factors probably lead to an increased average exposure, noted in adolescents.

    Indications:

    Adults

    Olanzapine is indicated for the treatment of schizophrenia.

    Olanzapine is effective in maintaining clinical improvement in the ongoing treatment of patients with schizophrenia responding to initial treatment.

    Olanzapine is indicated for the treatment of a manic episode from medium to severe.

    Olanzapine is indicated for the prevention of relapse in patients with bipolar disorder, in whom it proved effective in treating the manic phase (see the section "Pharmacodynamics").

    Therapeutically resistant depression. In combination with fluoxetine olanzapine is indicated for the treatment of therapeutically-resistant depression in adult patients (major depressive episodes with a history of ineffective use of two antidepressant doses and the duration of therapy appropriate to the episode). Olanzapine in monotherapy is not indicated for the treatment of therapeutically-resistant depression.

    Contraindications:

    Hypersensitivity to any of the components of the drug.

    Patients with a risk of developing an angle-closure glaucoma.

    Contraindicated for persons under 18 years.

    Deficiency of lactase, lactose intolerance, glucose-galactose malabsorption.

    Pregnancy and lactation:

    Pregnancy

    Adequate and strictly controlled studies in pregnant women were not conducted. Patients should be warned about the need to notify the attending physician about the onset of pregnancy or the desire to become pregnant during treatment with olanzapine. Nevertheless, due to the limited experience of human use, olanzapine should be used during pregnancy, only if the potential benefit exceeds the possible risk to the fetus.

    Newborns, mothers, who were taking olanzapine during the third trimester of pregnancy, are at risk of developing unwanted reactions, including extrapyramidal symptoms and / or withdrawal symptoms, which may vary in severity and duration after delivery. There was reported agitation, muscle hypertension, hypotension, tremor, drowsiness, respiratory distress syndrome and eating disorders. In this regard, newborns should be closely monitored.

    Breast-feeding

    In a study in lactating healthy women, it was found that olanzapine penetrates into breast milk. The average dose received by the child (mg / kg) in the equilibrium state,was 1.8% of the mother's olanzapine dose (mg / kg). When using olanzapine, patients are advised not to breast-feed.

    Fertility

    There is no information on the effect on fertility.

    Dosing and Administration:

    Adults

    Schizophrenia: the recommended initial dose of olanzapine is 10 mg once a day.

    Manic episode: the initial dose is 15 mg once a day with monotherapy or 10 mg per day as part of a combination therapy (see the section "Pharmacodynamics").

    Prevention of recurrence of bipolar disorder: the recommended initial dose of olanzapine is 10 mg once a day. Patients receiving olanzapine to treat a manic episode, to prevent recurrence should continue therapy in the same dose. If a new manic, mixed or depressive episode arises, olanzapine therapy should be continued (if necessary, by adjusting the dose), by using additional therapy to treat mood disorders in accordance with clinical need.

    In the treatment of schizophrenia, a manic episode and the prevention of recurrence of bipolar disorder, it is then possible to adjust the dose (in the range of 5-20 mg once daily) on the basis of individual clinical status.Exceeding the recommended initial dose should only be carried out after a proper clinical reassessment and should, in general, occur at intervals not less than 24 hours. Olanzapine can be taken regardless of food intake, since food does not affect absorption. If you cancel olanzapine dose should be reduced gradually.

    Therapeutically resistant depression: olanzapine should be administered in combination with fluoxetine 1 time per day, in the evening, regardless of food intake. Typically, the initial dose is 5 mg of olanzapine and 20 mg of fluoxetine. If necessary, you can change the dose of both olanzapine and fluoxetine. Antidepressant activity was confirmed with olanzapine in a dose of 6-12 mg and fluoxetine in a dose of 25-30 mg. When using the drug, it is necessary to regularly evaluate the need for continued therapy.

    Special Groups

    Elderly patients

    A smaller initial dose (5 mg / day) is generally not shown, but it should be considered in patients 65 years of age or older if required by the clinical condition (see section "Special instructions").

    Patients with renal and (or) liver failure

    Such patients should consider the appointment of a smaller initial dose (5 mg). For hepatic insufficiency of an average degree (cirrhosis, classes A or B by Child-Pugh), the initial dose should be 5 mg, which is increased with caution.

    Smoking

    Compared to smokers, a change in the initial dose or range of doses in non-smokers is not required. It is recommended to conduct clinical monitoring, if necessary, consider the need to increase the dose (see section "Interaction with other drugs").

    If there is more than one factor that can slow the metabolism (female sex, old age, not smoking face), you should consider reducing the dose. If it is necessary to increase the dose, it should be performed with caution in such patients.

    See the sections "Interaction with other drugs" and "Pharmacokinetics".

    Children

    Olaznzapine is not recommended for use in children and adolescents under 18 due to limited safety and efficacy data. In short-term studies in adolescents, compared with adults, weight gain, lipid and prolactin disorders were more pronounced (see Fig.sections "Special instructions", "Side effect", "Pharmacodynamics" and "Pharmacokinetics").

    1 In all patient groups, regardless of the initial body mass index, a clinically significant increase in body weight was observed. After a short course of therapy (munitscyan duration - 47 days) weight gain 7% of the initial value was observed very often (22.2%), 15% often (4.2%) and 25% infrequently (0.8%). Have napatients receiving long-term treatment (at least 48 weeks), an increase in 7, 15 and 25% were very frequent (64.4, 31.7 and 12.3% respectively).

    2The average increase in the concentration of lipids on an empty stomach (cholesterol, low density lipoprotein (LPN)P), triglycerides) was more pronounced in patients without initial signs of lipid metabolism disorders.

    3Chaone hundred per centbThere was an increase in the concentration of cholesterol from normal values nat(<5.17 mmol / l) to elevated (6.2 mmol / L). Change in concentration commono cholesterol on an empty stomach from border indicators (5.17- <6.2 mmol / l) to of theekshennyh (6,2 mmol / l) was very frequent.

    4Haone observed an increase in fasting glucose concentration from normal values ​​(<5.56 mmol / l) to elevated (7 mmol / L). Change in fasting glucose concentration from borderline indicators (5.56 - <7 mmol / l) to elevated (7 mmol / l) was very frequent.

    5 Often there was an increase in the concentration of triglycerides on an empty stomach from normalh(<1.69 mmol / l) to elevated2.26 mmol / l). Change in fasting triglyceride concentration from borderline indicators (1.69 - <2.26 mmol / l) to elevated (2.26 mmol / l) was very frequent.

    6The frequency of parkinsonism and dystonia in patients taking olMr.Zapin in clinical studies was quantitatively higher but statistically significant from placeboe fromlichalas. In patients who took olanzapine, parkinsonism, akathisia, dystonia were less frequent than in patients who received Podds and endsMr.doses of haloperidol. In view of lack of detailed information on the presence of patients in the anamnesiseth e sharp and late etostapyramide locomotor disorders, it is currently impossible to conclude that olanzapine to a lesser degree causes the development of tardive dyskinesia and (or) other late extraPiramidic syndromes.

    7With a sharp abolition of olanzapine, symptoms such as sweating, insomnia, tremors, anxiety, nausea, and vomiting were observed.

    8In clinical studies of up to 12 weeks, the concentration of prolactin in the plasma exceeded the upper limit of normal in about 30% of the naqipatients with normal initial values ​​of prolactin. Most of these paqiincreased prolactin concentration was mild, and did not exceed 2 upper bounds of the norm.

    Long-term exposure (at least 48 weeks)

    The proportion of patients who experienced undesirable clinically significant changes in body weight, glucose, total / LDL cholesterol or triglyceride levels increased over time. In adults who underwent a 9-12-month course of therapy, the rate of increase in mean glucose concentration in the blood decreased after 6 months.

    Additional information about special patient groups

    In clinical studies in elderly patients with dementia, olanzapine therapy compared with placebo resulted in an increased incidence of fatal outcomes and cerebrovascular unwanted reactions (see also "Specific guidance").Very frequent undesirable reactions caused by the use of olanzapine in this group of patients were gait and fall disturbances. Often observed pneumonia, fever, lethargy, erythema, visual hallucinations and urinary incontinence.

    In clinical studies in patients with drug (dopamine receptor agonists) psychosis due to Parkinson's disease, very often (more often than with placebo), the deterioration of parkinsonian symptoms and hallucinations was reported.

    In one clinical trial in patients with bipolar mania, combined therapy with valproic acid and olanzapine in 4.1% of cases resulted in neutropenia, a potential causative factor could be a high plasma concentration of valproic acid. The use of olanzapine with lithium or valproic acid resulted in an increased frequency (≥10%) of tremor, dry mouth, increased appetite and weight gain. In addition, the disorder of speech was often reported. When combined therapy with olanzapine and lithium or valproate semitriya, an increase in body weight ≥7% of the initial body weight was observed in 17.4% of patients in a short course of treatment (up to 6 weeks).Long-term therapy with olanzapine (up to 12 months) in order to prevent relapse in patients with bipolar disorder led to an increase of ≥7% of the baseline body weight in 39.9% of patients.

    Children

    Olanzapine is not indicated for the treatment of children and adolescents under the age of 18 years.

    Despite the fact that clinical studies aimed at comparing adolescents with adults were not conducted, the data obtained in studies in adolescents were compared with the results of studies in adults.

    The presented table summarizes the undesirable reactions observed in adolescents (aged 13-17 years) with a higher frequency compared with adults or undesirable reactions found only in adolescents in the context of short-term clinical trials. A clinically significant increase in body weight (≥7%) is more likely to occur in adolescents than in adults (with comparable exposures). The amount of weight gain and the proportion of adolescents with a clinically significant increase in body weight is higher for long-term exposures (at least 24 weeks) than for short-term exposures.

    In each frequency category, unwanted reactions are arranged in decreasing order of severity.The following frequency categories are used: very often (≥1 / 10), often (≥1 / 100 to <1/10).

    From the side of metabolism and nutrition

    Very often: weight gain13, an increase in the concentration of triglycerides14, increased appetite.

    Often: increased cholesterol concentration15.

    From the nervous system

    Very often: sedation (including hypersomnia, lethargy, drowsiness).

    From the gastrointestinal tract

    Often: dry mouth.

    From the liver and biliary tract

    Very often: increased activity of hepatic aminotransferases (ALT / AST, see section "Special instructions").

    Laboratory data

    Very often: a decrease in the concentration of total bilirubin, an increase in GGT activity, an increase in the plasma concentration of prolactin16

    13After a short course of therapy (median duration - 22 day) weight gain 7% of the initial value (kg) was observed very often (40,6%), 15% often (7.1%) and 25% infrequently (2.5%). With long-term treatment (according to less at least 24 weeks), an increase in 7% was noted in 89.4% of cases, 15% - 55.3% and 25% - 29.1% of cases from the initial body weight.

    14 Often an increase in fasting triglyceride concentration from normal values ​​(<1.016 mmol / L) to elevated (1,467 mmol / L) and changes in fasting triglyceride concentration from borderline indicators (1,016 - <1.467 mmol / L) to elevated (1.467 mmol / l) was very frequent.

    15Often there was an increase in cholesterol concentration from normal fasting values ​​(<4.39 mmol / l) to elevated (5.17 mmol / l). Change in the total fasting cholesterol concentration from borderline indicators (4.39- <5.17 mmol / l) to byvyshenMr.th (5.17 mmol / l) was very frequent.

    16An increased plasma concentration of prolactin was found in 47.4% of adolescents.

    Overdose:

    Signs and Symptoms

    Very frequent (frequency ≥10%) symptoms with olanzapine overdose are tachycardia, agitation / aggressiveness, dysarthria, various extrapyramidal symptoms and a decrease in consciousness of varying severity (from sedation to coma).

    Other clinically significant effects of olanzapine overdose included delirium, seizures, malignant neuroleptic syndrome, respiratory depression, aspiration, hypertension or hypotension, arrhythmias (<2% overdose), and cardiac arrest and respiratory arrest. The minimum dose for acute overdose with a lethal outcome was 450 mg, the maximum dose for an overdose with a favorable outcome (survival) is 2 g of olanzapine.

    Medical assistance in case of overdose

    There is no specific antidote for olanzapine. It is not recommended to provoke vomiting. Typical for overdose procedures are shown, for example, gastric lavage, reception of activated charcoal. Simultaneous reception of activated charcoal and olanzapine showed a decrease in bioavailability of olanzapine upon ingestion up to 50-60%.

    Symptomatic treatment is shown in accordance with the clinical condition and control of vital body functions, including correction of arterial hypotension, circulatory disorders and maintenance of respiratory function. Do not use epinephrine, dopamine and other adrenomimetics, which are β-adrenoreceptor agonists, since stimulation of these receptors can aggravate arterial hypotension. In order to identify possible arrhythmias, cardiovascular activity should be monitored. Careful medical supervision and monitoring should continue until the patient fully recovered.

    Interaction:

    The study of drug interactions was conducted exclusively in adults.

    Potential interactions affecting olanzapine

    Because the olanzapine is metabolized by the CYP1A2 isoenzyme, substances capable of selectively inducing or inhibiting this isoenzyme may alter the pharmacokinetics of olanzapine.

    Induction of the CYP1A2 isoenzyme

    Smoking and carbamazepine can induce the metabolism of olanzapine, which can lead to a decrease in the concentration of the latter. There was an increase in the clearance of olanzapine from mild to moderate. Clinical consequences are likely to be limited, but it is recommended to carry out clinical follow-up with an increase in dose as needed (see section "Method of administration and dose").

    Inhibition of the CYP1A2 isoenzyme

    Shown, that fluvoxamine, a specific inhibitor of the isoenzyme CYP1A2, significantly inhibits the metabolism of olanzapine. Average increase Cmax olanzapine after application of fluvoxamine is 54% in nonsmoking women and 77% in male smokers. The average increase in AUC was 52% and 108%, respectively. Patients using fluvoxamine or other inhibitors of the CYP1A2 isoenzyme, such as ciprofloxacin, a smaller dose of olanzapine should be given. When treating with an inhibitor of the isoenzyme CYP1A2, one should consider the possibility of reducing the dose of olanzapine.

    Decreased bioavailability

    Activated coal reduces the bioavailability of oral olanzapine by 50-60%, so it should be used 2 hours before or after taking olanzapine.

    Fluoxetine (inhibitor of the isoenzyme CYP2D6), single doses of antacids (aluminum, magnesium-containing) and cimetidine have no significant effect on the pharmacokinetics of olanzapine.

    The ability of olanzapine to influence other medications

    Olanzapine can block the effects of direct and indirect dopamine receptor agonists.

    Olanzapine does not inhibit the main isoenzymes of cytochrome P450 in vitro (eg, 1A2, 2D6, 2C9, 2C19, 3A4). Thus, certain interactions are not expected, as evidenced by the results of in vivo studies in which there was no inhibition of the metabolism of the following pharmaceutical substances: a tricyclic antidepressant (representing predominantly the CD2D6 pathway), warfarin (CYP2C19), theophylline (CYP1A2) and diazepam (CYP3A4 and 2C19).

    Olanzapine did not interact with lithium and biperiden.

    Therapeutic monitoring of plasma concentrations of valproic acid did not show that after the onset of concomitant use of olanzapine, a dose adjustment of the latter is necessary.

    General activity of the central nervous system

    Caution should be exercised in patients who consume alcohol or who take medications that depress the central nervous system.

    The simultaneous use of olanzapine with anti-Parkinsonian drugs in patients with Parkinson's disease and dementia is not recommended (see section "Special instructions").

    QTc Interval

    Caution should be exercised while using olanzapine with medications that extend the QTc interval (see section "Special instructions").

    Special instructions:

    Improving the clinical state of the patient with antipsychotic therapy can take from several days to several weeks, this period requires careful monitoring of the patient.

    Suicide

    Patients with schizophrenia and bipolar disorder type 1 propensity to commit suicide, in this regard, in the face of pharmacotherapy requires careful monitoring of patients at high risk of committing it. In order to reduce the risk of overdose, a minimum amount of the drug should be prescribed, sufficient to ensure the proper therapeutic effect.

    Psychosis and / or behavioral disorders due to dementia

    Olanzapine is not approved for the treatment of psychosis and / or behavioral disorders due to dementia and is not recommended for use in this group of patients due to increased mortality and the risk of cerebrovascular complications. In placebo-controlled studies (6-12 weeks) in elderly patients (mean age 78 years) with psychosis and / or impaired behavior due to dementia, there was a twofold increase in the incidence of death in patients who received olanzapine, compared with patients in the placebo group (3.5 versus 1.5%, respectively). The increased incidence of lethal outcomes was independent of the dose of olanzapine (mean daily dose of 4.4 mg) and duration of treatment. Risk factors that may predispose to increased mortality among this patient population are age over 65 years, dysphagia, sedation, malnutrition and dehydration, lung diseases (eg, pneumonia, with or without aspiration) and simultaneous use of benzodiazepines. However, the incidence of death in patients who received olanzapine, compared with those receiving placebo was higher regardless of these risk factors.

    The results of the same clinical study indicate cerebrovascular adverse events (SVR, for example, stroke, transient ischemic attack), including fatal outcomes. There was a threefold increase in the frequency of CSN in patients who received olanzapine, compared with patients receiving placebo (1.3 vs. 0.4%, respectively). In all patients who received olanzapine and placebo, who had cerebrovascular events, had risk factors. Risk factors for CVD associated with treatment with olanzapine are age over 75 years and vascular / mixed dementia. Olanzapine did not show effectiveness in these studies.

    Parkinson's disease

    The use of olanzapine for the treatment of psychoses caused by the use of dopamine receptor agonists in Parkinson's disease is not recommended. In clinical studies, the deterioration of Parkinson's symptoms and hallucinations (see "Side effect") was noted very often (and at a higher frequency than in the placebo group), the effectiveness of olanzapine for the relief of psychotic symptoms did not exceed the placebo.The criteria for inclusion in these studies were: a stable lowest effective dose of antiparkinsonian drugs (dopamine receptor agonist) and the use of the same antiparkinsonian drugs and doses throughout the study. The use of olanzapine was started from 2.5 mg / day with increasing dose at the investigator's discretion up to 15 mg / day.

    Malignant neuroleptic syndrome (3HC)

    ZNS is a potentially lethal symptom complex due to antipsychotic drugs. Rare cases of 3NC have been reported with olanzapine. Clinical manifestations of 3NC: hyperthermia, muscle rigidity, changes in mental status and vegetative disorders (unstable pulse or arterial pressure, tachycardia, increased sweating and arrhythmias). Additional signs: increased activity of creatine phosphokinase, myoglobinuria (rhabdomyolysis) and acute renal failure. If a patient develops signs and symptoms of the NSH or an unexplained high fever occurs without additional manifestations of the NSH, all antipsychotic drugs, including olanzapine, should be canceled.

    Hyperglycemia and diabetes mellitus

    Infrequent reports of hyperglycemia and / or development or exacerbation of diabetes mellitus, sometimes accompanied by ketoacidosis or coma, were reported infrequently, including several lethal cases (see "Side effect"). In some cases, a previous increase in body weight was reported, which may serve as a predisposing factor. It is recommended that proper clinical monitoring be performed in accordance with current guidelines for antipsychotic therapy, for example, measuring the baseline blood glucose concentration, 12 weeks after the initiation of olanzapine therapy, and then annually. Patients receiving any antipsychotic drugs, including olanzapine, should be observed for signs and symptoms of hyperglycemia (such as polydipsia, polyuria, polyphagia and weakness), and patients with diabetes mellitus or risk factors for its development should be checked regularly to reduce glycemic control. The body weight should be checked regularly, for example, before the onset, 4, 8 and 12 weeks after the start of olanzapine and then on a quarterly basis.

    Lipid disorders

    In placebo-controlled studies in patients who received olanzapine, undesirable changes in the lipid profile were observed (see the "Side effect" section). Lipid disorders should be subjected to appropriate clinical correction, especially in patients with dyslipidemia and patients with risk factors for lipid disorders. Patients receiving any antipsychotic medication, including olanzapine, the lipid profile should be checked regularly according to the current guidelines for antipsychotic therapy, for example, measuring their baseline content, 12 weeks after the start of therapy, and then every 5 years.

    Anticholinergic activity

    Although olanzapine exhibited anticholinergic activity in vitro, according to the results of clinical studies, the corresponding phenomena appeared with a low frequency. However, clinical experience with olanzapine in patients with concomitant diseases is limited, caution should be exercised in prescribing patients with prostatic hypertrophy, paralytic intestinal obstruction, and similar conditions.

    Dysfunction of the liver

    The use of olanzapine often, especially in the early stages of therapy, was accompanied by a transient, asymptomatic increase in the activity of hepatic aminotransferases (AST and ALT). In patients with increased ALT and / or ACT activity, signs and symptoms of hepatic insufficiency, conditions causing a decrease in the functional reserve of the liver or using potentially hepatotoxic drugs, care should be taken and follow-up should be carried out. When diagnosing hepatitis (including hepatic-cell, cholestatic and this liver damage), treatment with olanzapine should be canceled.

    Neutropenia

    Olanzapine should be used with caution in patients with low leukocyte and (or) neutrophil count regardless of the cause; drug-induced bone marrow suppression / toxicity in history, bone marrow depression due to concomitant disease, radiation or chemotherapy; as well as in patients with hypereosinophilic conditions or myeloproliferative disease. Neutropenia was often recorded with the simultaneous use of olanzapine and valproic acid (see section "Side effect").

    Abolition of therapy

    With a sharp abolition of olanzapine rarely (≥0.01 and <0.1%), sweating, insomnia, tremor, anxiety, nausea and vomiting were recorded.

    Interval FROM

    In clinical trials, in patients receiving olanzapine, a clinically significant prolongation of the QT interval (QT interval with Ferteria [QTcF] correction ≥500 ms with a baseline value of QTcF <500 ms) was noted infrequently (0.1-1%) in the absence of significant differences with placebo in the incidence of adverse events with hand of the heart. However, like other antipsychotics, caution should be exercised in prescribing olanzapine in combination with drugs that can prolong the QTc interval, especially in the elderly, patients with congenital QT interval prolongation, chronic heart failure, myocardial hypertrophy, hypokalemia, or hypomagnesemia.

    Thromboembolism

    On the background of olanzainnom therapy infrequently (≥0.1 and <1%) reported on the development of venous thromboembolism. A causal relationship between the use of olanzapine and venous thromboembolism has not been established. However, given that patients with schizophrenia often have acquired risk factors for venous thromboembolism, it is necessary to identify all possible risk factors for VTE, for example, patient immobilization, to take the necessary preventive measures.

    General activity of the central nervous system

    Given the primary effect of olanzapine on the central nervous system, caution should be exercised when using olanzapine in combination with other central-action drugs and alcohol. Because the olanzapine exhibits antagonism against dopamine receptors in vitro, it can block the effects of direct and indirect dopamine receptor agonists.

    Convulsions

    Olanzapine should be used with caution in patients with a history of seizures or exposed to factors that reduce the threshold of convulsive readiness. The treatment with olanzapine infrequently recorded seizures. In most cases, history of seizures or risk factors for seizures has been reported.

    Late dyskinesia

    In comparative studies lasting a year or less, olanzapine treatment was statistically significantly less associated with the development of iatrogenic dyskinesia. However, the risk of tardive dyskinesia increases with long-term exposure, so if a patient who receives olanzapine, signs or symptoms of tardive dyskinesia, consideration should be given to reducing the dose or abolishing olanzapine.After the withdrawal of therapy, these symptoms may temporarily worsen or even reappear.

    Postural hypotension

    In clinical studies of olanzapine, postural hypotension was rarely observed in elderly patients. Like other antipsychotics, patients older than 65 years are advised to periodically monitor blood pressure.

    Sudden cardiac arrest with fatal outcome

    According to the post-marketing experience of olanzapine, cases of sudden cardiac arrest with a fatal outcome have been reported. In a retrospective observational cohort study, the risk of presumed sudden cardiac arrest in patients who received olanzapine, was approximately twice as high as in patients who did not receive antipsychotics. The risk of olanzapine in the study was comparable to the risk of atypical antipsychotics included in the pooled analysis.

    Children

    Olanzapine is not recommended for use in children and adolescents. In studies of adolescents aged 13-17, various adverse reactions were noted, including weight gain, change in metabolic parameters, and hyperprolactinaemia (see Table 1).sections "Side effect" and "Farmakodinamika").

    Effect on the ability to drive transp. cf. and fur:Studies of the effect on the ability to drive vehicles and other mechanisms were conducted. Because the olanzapine may cause drowsiness and dizziness, patients should be warned of the danger when working with mechanisms, including vehicles.
