Olanzapine-Induced Clinical Seizure: A Case Report
Clinical Neuropharmacology, 10/13/09

Behere RV et al. – Electroencephalogram showed epileptiform discharges; results of computed tomographic scan and metabolic investigations were normal. His antipsychotic was changed to haloperidol, and the patient showed a significant improvement in psychotic symptoms with no recurrence of seizures and did not require anticonvulsant therapy. Olanzapine has a profile similar to that of clozapine and shares its seizure–inducing potential. Typical antipsychotics such as haloperidol might be a safer option for such patients.
