Abstract:
We investigated the anti-tremor effect of olanzapine, a novel atypical antidopaminergic drug, in 37 patients with essential tremor (ET) in an open-label and prospective study by clinical scoring and patient self-evaluation. Olanzapine monotherapy appears to be efficacious for the treatment of ET. Further clinical trials with control groups are indicated to establish the efficacy of olanzapine in patients with ET.
