Zyprexa Zydis Chemical Information

olanzapine - A synthetic derivative of thienobenzodiazepine with antipsychotic properties. As a selective monoaminergic antagonist, olanzapine binds with high affinity binding to the following receptors: serotonin, dopamine, muscarinic M1-5, histamine H1, and alpha1-adrenergic receptors; it binds weakly to gamma-aminobutyric acid type A, benzodiazepine, and beta-adrenergic receptors. Although its exact mechanism of action in schizophrenia is unknown, it has been proposed that olanzapine's antipsychotic activity is mediated through a combination of dopamine and serotonin type 2 antagonism.
