ACTIONS AND PHARMACOLOGY The exact mechanism by which olanzapine exerts its antipsychotic effect is unknown. Olanzapine is a selective monoaminergic antagonist with a strong affinity for serotonin 5-HT 2A and 5-HT 2C receptors, and dopamine D 1 , D 2 , D 3 , and D 4 receptors. It weakly binds to gammaaminobutyric acid type A (GABA A ), benzo- diazepine (BZD), and beta-adrenergic receptors. Olanzapine's high affinity binding to and antagonism of, muscarinic M 1 , M 2 , M 3 , M 4 , and M 5 receptors may explain its anticholinergic effects. Olanzapine also binds with high affinity to histamine H 1 and α 1 -adrenergic receptors. PHARMACOKINETICS Olanzapine is well absorbed from the gastro-intestinal tract after oral doses but undergoes considerable first-pass metabolism. Peak plasma concentrations occur about 5 to 8 hours after oral doses and about 15 to 45 minutes after an intramuscular dose. Olanzapine is about 93% bound to plasma proteins. It is extensively metabolized in the liver, mainly by direct glucuronidation and by oxidation mediated through the cytochrome P450 isoenzymes CYP1A2, and, to a lesser extent, CYP2D6. The 2 major metabolites, 10-N-glucuronide and 4’-N-desmethyl olanzapine, appear to be inactive. About 57% of a dose is excreted in the urine, mainly as metabolites, and about 30% appears in the faeces. The mean plasma elimination half-life has been variously reported to be about 30 Baca dokumen lengkap
