How long does it take zyprexa (olanzapine) to begin working?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It depends: That would depend to some extent on the condition being treated, the dosing used, and the delivery method (oral vs im). In general the earliest effect would be in about 3-7 days with further increase in effect over the next 4-6 weeks.
