1 Influence of olanzapine on serum prolactin levels and BMI in female patients with schizophrenia. Olanzapine prolactin Homo sapiens
2 The existing evidences show that serum PRL is elevated in schizophrenic patients treated with olanzapine. Olanzapine prolactin Homo sapiens
3 Results: The olanzapine treatment for 12 weeks significantly increased serum PRL (P<0.01) level and BMI (P<0.01). Olanzapine prolactin Homo sapiens
