Abstract

More and more patients are diagnosed as the borderline personality disorder (BPD). Usually, this group of people challenges seriously the whole staff, especially with no obvious standard of biological treatment. Olanzapine treatment is the only biological treatment that partially proved its effectiveness in randomized clinical trial. Some other drugs, both antipsychotics and antidepressants, may reduce the severity of symptoms of affective instability and impulsivity of BPD.
