ObjectivesOlanzapine is used for treating bipolar disorder (BPD); however, the optimal initial dosing regimen is unclear. The present study aimed to investigate the optimal olanzapine initial dosage in patients with BPD via model-informed precision dosing (MIPD) based on a real-world study.MethodsThirty-nine patients with BPD from the real-world study were collected to construct the MIPD model.ResultsWeight, combined used quetiapine influenced olanzapine clearances in patients with BPD, where the clearance rates were 0.152:1 in patients with or without quetiapine under the same weight. We simulated olanzapine doses once a day or twice a day, of which twice a day was optimal. Without quetiapine, for twice-a-day olanzapine doses, 0.80, 0.70, and 0.60 mg/kg/day were suitable for 40- to 56-kg BPD patients, 56- to 74-kg BPD patients, and 74- to 100-kg BPD patients, respectively. With quetiapine, for twice-a-day olanzapine doses, 0.05 mg/kg/day was suitable for 40- to 100-kg BPD patients.ConclusionThis study was the first to investigate the optimal olanzapine initial dosage in patients with BPD via MIPD based on a real-world study, providing clinical reference for the precision medication of olanzapine in BPD patients.
