Pediatrician, Pulmonology 's  Response
Hi....Olanzepine is usually used for schizophrenia. Drowsiness is common while using it initially. Some olanzapine side effects may not need any medical attention. As the body gets used to the medicine these side effects may disappear...especially drowsiness. But there is no way to find out how many days it will take. It depends on individual body response.
