| Abstract | INTRODUCTION: Olanzapine-fluoxetine combination is one of only two products currently approved by the US FDA for the acute treatment of depressive episodes associated with bipolar disorder. AREAS COVERED: This treatment evaluation reviews double-blind randomized controlled trials of olanzapine-fluoxetine combination for bipolar depression. A total of three primary study reports are found in the peer-reviewed literature. Additional data regarding the trials are obtained from study synopses disclosed on the internet by the manufacturer and from product labeling. EXPERT OPINION: Number needed to treat for antidepressant response for olanzapine-fluoxetine combination versus placebo in the 8-week trials was 4 (95% CI 3 - 8), and that for remission was 5 (95% CI 3 - 8). Single-digit numbers needed to harm (NNH) values were observed for the treatment-emergent adverse events of weight gain (NNH 7, 95% CI 5 - 16) and diarrhea (NNH 9, 95% CI 5 - 30). NNH versus placebo for weight gain ≥ 7% from baseline was 6 (95% CI 4 - 10). When contrasted with lamotrigine, olanzapine-fluoxetine combination demonstrates statistically significantly greater improvement in depressive and manic symptoms but there is a higher incidence of treatment-emergent adverse events, weight gain and elevation in metabolic factors. Studies that directly compare quetiapine monotherapy with olanzapine-fluoxetine combination, the only two approved products for the treatment of bipolar depression, are not available. Nonetheless, indirect comparisons indicate similar efficacy outcomes but different tolerability profiles, with quetiapine principally being associated with sedation. Additional approved treatment options would be welcome. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
