Olanzapine (LY170053, 2-methyl-4-(4-methyl-1-piperazinyl)-10H-thieno[2,3-b][1,5] benzodiazepine) is a novel "atypical" antipsychotic agent with 5-hydroxytryptamine2.dopamine D1/D2 antagonist activity and anticholinergic properties. In behavioral studies, olanzapine (1.25-10 mg/kg, p.o.) antagonizes apomorphine-induced climbing behavior in mice, demonstrating that the compound possesses D1/D2 antagonist activity in
