Indicazioni terapeutiche:

Oral ZYPREXA is indicated for the treatment of schizophrenia. Efficacy was established in three clinical trials in adult patients with schizophrenia: two 6-week trials and one maintenance trial. In adolescent patients with schizophrenia (ages 13-17), efficacy was established in one 6-week trial [see Clinical Studies (14.1)] . When deciding among the alternative treatments available for adolescents, clinicians should consider the increased potential (in adolescents as compared with adults) for weight gain and hyperlipidemia. Clinicians should consider the potential long-term risks when prescribing to adolescents, and in many cases this may lead them to consider prescribing other drugs first in adolescents [see Warnings and Precautions (5.5, 5.6)] . Monotherapy — Oral ZYPREXA is indicated for the acute treatment of manic or mixed episodes associated with bipolar I disorder and maintenance treatment of bipolar I disorder.

Read the Medication Guide that comes with ZYPREXA before you start
taking it and each time you get a
refill. There may be new information. This Medication Guide does not
take the place of talking to your
doctor about your medical condition or treatment. Talk with your
doctor or pharmacist if there is
something you do not understand or you want to learn more about
ZYPREXA.
What is the most important information I should know about ZYPREXA?
Serious side effects may happen when you take ZYPREXA, including:
Increased risk of death in elderly patients with dementia-related
psychosis: Medicines like ZYPREXA
can raise the risk of death in elderly people who have lost touch with
reality (psychosis) due to confusion
and memory loss (dementia). ZYPREXA is not approved for treating
psychosis in the elderly with
dementia.
High blood sugar (hyperglycemia): High blood sugar can happen if you
have diabetes already or even if
you have never had diabetes. In rare cases, this could lead to
ketoacidosis (build up of acid in the blood
due to ketones), coma, or death. Your doctor should do lab tests to
check your blood sugar before you
start taking ZYPREXA and during treatment. In people who do not have
diabetes, sometimes high blood
sugar goes away when ZYPREXA is stopped. People with diabetes and some
people who did not have
diabetes before taking ZYPREXA need to take medicine for high blood
sugar even after they stop taking
ZYPREXA.
If you have diabetes, follow your doctor's instructions about how
often to check your blood sugar while
taking ZYPREXA.
Call your doctor if you have any of these symptoms of high blood sugar
(hyperglycemia) while taking
ZYPREXA:
•
feel very thirsty
•
need to urinate more than usual
•
feel very hungry
•
feel weak or tired
•
feel sick to your stomach
•
feel confused, or your breath smells fruity.
