A Case of Eosinophilia Associated With Olanzapine

Abstract

Olanzapine is an atypical antipsychotic medication that was originally developed for the treatment of schizophrenia. We report a case of eosinophilia possibly associated with olanzapine treatment for a recurrent manic episode. Although olanzapine is a potent agent for various psychiatric disorders, hematological complications should be taken into consideration as a possible adverse reaction.
