OZIP PLUS CAP 6-25MG

OZIP PLUS CAP 6/25MG (Olanzapine 6mg + Fluoxetine 25mg)

OZIP PLUS CAP 6/25MG is a prescription medicine that combines Olanzapine 6mg (an atypical antipsychotic) and Fluoxetine 25mg (a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor – SSRI). This combination is prescribed by healthcare professionals for the treatment of depressive episodes associated with Bipolar I Disorder and treatment-resistant depression (TRD) in selected patients. By combining the mood-stabilizing effects of olanzapine with the antidepressant action of fluoxetine, OZIP Plus helps improve mood, reduce depressive symptoms, and enhance overall mental well-being under medical supervision.
