Brief Summary

Atypical antipsychotics are pharmaceutical drugs used to treat schizophrenia. Common side effects are weight gain, insulin resistance, and abnormal blood lipids. This increases the risk for type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular disease in patients taking these drugs. In particular, olanzapine is a highly effective therapy for schizophrenia but is commonly associated with metabolic disturbances. It has previously been shown that the negative effects on insulin sensitivity and glucose metabolism occur even after a single dose, independently of weight gain. These effects may be mediated by blocking the dopamine (D2) receptor. In this study the research team is investigating whether a single dose of olanzapine alters postprandial lipid metabolism after a high-fat drink. Olanzapine administered along with the high-fat drink will be compared to placebo or olanzapine plus bromocriptine (an activator of the D2 receptor).
