Zyprexa Zydis (Olanzapine) is an orally disintegrating tablet that should be taken by mouth, with or without food, as directed by your doctor, usually once a day. The tablets come in a blister or a bottle, so do not remove the tablet from the packaging until ready to take it.
When handling the tablet, make sure your hands are dry. If the tablet comes in a blister, carefully peel back the foil to remove it without damaging the tablet. Place the tablet on your tongue and allow it to dissolve, after which it can be swallowed with or without liquid.
The recommended dosage of Zyprexa Zydis (Olanzapine) will depend on your medical condition and response to treatment. The recommended starting dose for adults with schizophrenia or bipolar disorder is typically 5 to 10 milligrams (mg) once a day, and the maximum daily dosage is 20 mg. However, your doctor may adjust your dosage based on your individual needs and response to treatment.
