Background: The second-generation antipsychotic drug olanzapine is an effective pharmacological treatment for psychosis. However,
use of the drug is commonly associated with a range of metabolic side effects, including glucose intolerance and insulin resistance.
These symptoms have been accurately modelled in rodents. Methods: We compared the effects of 3 distinct classes of anti dia betic
drugs, metformin (100 and 500 mg/kg, oral), rosiglitazone (6 and 30 mg/kg, oral) and glyburide (2 and 10 mg/kg, oral), on olanzapine-
induced metab olic dysregulation. After acutely treating female rats with lower (7.5 mg/kg) or higher (15 mg/kg) doses of olanzapine, we
assessed glucose intolerance using the glucose tolerance test and measured insulin resistance using the homeostatic model assess-
ment of insulin resist ance equation. Results: Both doses of olanzapine caused pronounced glucose dysregulation and insulin resist -
ance, which were significantly reduced by treatment with metformin and rosiglitazone; however, glucose tolerance did not fully return to
control levels. In contrast, glyburide failed to reverse the glucose intolerance caused by olanzapine despite increasing insulin levels.
Limitations: We evaluated a single antipsychotic drug, and it is unknown whether other antipsychotic drugs are similarly affected by
anti diabetic treatments. Conclusion: The present study indicates that oral hypoglycemic drugs that influence hepatic glucose metab -
olism, such as metformin and rosiglitazone, are more effective in regulating olanzapine-induced glucose dysregulation than drugs pri-
marily affecting insulin release, such as glyburide. The current model may be used to better understand the biological basis of glucose
dysregulation caused by olanzapine and how it can be reversed.

REGULAR SALMETEROL IN CHRONIC ASTHMA: SERIOUS An editorial by Kevin Weiss in the Annals of Internal Medicine(1) has warned against the use of long-acting beta2-agonists (with or without inhaled corticosteroids) as first line treatment in asthma, and especially not for people with mild asthma. He also suggests that it would be prudent to use long-acting beta2-agonists only when the prescriber is c
