Product information
About
Tolaz DT from Torrent contains olanzapine, an atypical antipsychotic medicine that comes as a mouth-dispersible tablet. The DT form is useful for people who find swallowing whole tablets difficult.
Uses
- Schizophrenia
- Bipolar disorder, including manic and mixed episodes
- Maintenance therapy to reduce relapse in bipolar disorder
- Add-on for treatment-resistant depression as advised by a specialist
How it works
Olanzapine balances dopamine and serotonin activity in the brain, the two chemical messengers that are out of sync in conditions like schizophrenia and bipolar disorder. This helps calm hallucinations, mood swings and disordered thinking.
How to take
Place the tablet on the tongue and let it dissolve as prescribed by your doctor; no water is needed. Do not stop suddenly even if you feel better, as symptoms can return.
Side effects
- Drowsiness or fatigue
- Weight gain and increased appetite
- Dry mouth or constipation
- Dizziness, especially when standing up
- Higher blood sugar or cholesterol over time
Precautions
Tell your doctor about diabetes, heart disease, seizures, liver problems or a family history of stroke or dementia. Regular weight, sugar and lipid checks are usually needed.
Storage
Keep in the original blister below 25 degrees Celsius, away from moisture. Store out of children's reach.
