This is how I use Olanzapine. I have 2.5 mg and can take up to 10 mg. it's really to help with sleep and anxiety issues, which are related for me. I often wake up early but used to go back to sleep, so I have been tired these days not getting enough sleep. i will have to bite the bullet and take olanzapine tonight. It made me pre-diabetic and that is why I don't take it regularly.
