N2  - Olanzapine is an antipsychotic drug used in psychiatric diseases. At high doses it exhibits cardiovascular and neurological side-effects in particular. Lipid emulsion therapy for the removal of medication from plasma in high-dose lipophilic drug use has recently become very widespread. In the light of current literature, this report discusses the successful treatment of a patient within 4 hrs of olanzapine overdose as an attempted suicide, who presented with agitation and clouded consciousness. © 2018 Rila Publications Ltd.
