1 Prolactin levels in olanzapine treatment correlate with positive symptoms of schizophrenia: results from an open-label, flexible-dose study. Olanzapine prolactin Homo sapiens
2 OBJECTIVE: This study was designed to investigate the relationship between the treatment effect of olanzapine and the serum prolactin level in schizophrenia and to investigate the factors that may act as predictors of response for olanzapine treatment. Olanzapine prolactin Homo sapiens
3 RESULTS: In general, the serum prolactin level was decreased in schizophrenia patients with olanzapine treatment, although the difference is not statistically significant (p = .974, p = .246, and p = .363 for the first, second, and third months, respectively). Olanzapine prolactin Homo sapiens
4 There was a close relationship between the improvement in positive symptoms and the change in serum prolactin levels before and after olanzapine treatment (p = .002). Olanzapine prolactin Homo sapiens
