A member asked:
What are the therapeutic levels of olanzapine?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
20-40 ng/ml: Is cited, however Olanzapine blood levels are not routinely done in clinical practice as it does not have a widely accepted therapeutic level. On label dosing is up to 20 mgs daily, but dosing is frequently higher and there have been studies in treatment resistant schizophrenia using 50 mg daily.
