Orally disintegrating olanzapine for the treatment of a manic patient with esophageal stricture plus chronic pharyngitis.
An orally disintegrating tablet formulation of olanzapine (ODT olanzapine) is designed to dissolve rapidly upon contact with saliva. We describe a manic patient who has an esophageal stricture and chronic pharyngitis, two conditions that impede the swallowing of medications. She was successfully treated for her mania with this orally disintegrating formulation. This case report shows that ODT olanzapine may be useful in the psychiatric management of manic and other patients for whom olanzapine is appropriate, and who have an underlying medical condition that impedes swallowing oral medications.
