Objectives: The use of atypical antipsychotics has been associated with increased weight gain, the development of type-2 diabetes, and, in rare cases, diabetic ketoacidosis. It is not clear if these changes are a direct function of antipsychotics on either insulin action or insulin secretion, or simply related to their ability to induce weight gain in a population at increased risk to develop hyperglycemia. The objective of this investigation is to determine if treatment with the atypical antipsychotics olanzapine impairs the ability of the pancreatic beta cell to increase its insulin secretory response to graded increases in plasma glucose concentration in non-diabetic, insulin resistant individuals. In addition, we will compare the range of insulin-mediated glucose uptake (IMGU) in olanzapine-treated versus non-antipsychotic treated patients.
