Abstract
The olanzapine orally disintegrating tablet (ODT) has the same pharmacological properties as the standard olanzapine tablet but a more rapid absorption and earlier detectable plasma concentration. Thus, the ODT olanzapine is very suitable for acute treatment of schizophrenia and can be administered instead of injections. The ODT olanzapine is useful whenever there are difficulties in swallowing or digesting. The patient’s adherence to the ODT olanzapine is more prominent than the standard version of olanzapine. The ODT formulation has got some metabolic advantages for patients.
