Symbyax is used to treat depressive episodes in association with bipolar disorder and major depressive disorder. The medication is designed to be used by patients that are resistant or have little to no improvement of their symptoms with other medications.
Ingredients
Symbyax combines active ingredients from two other medications, the antidepressant fluoxetine from Prozac and the antipsychotic olanzapine from Zyprexa. Inactive ingredients include pregelatinized starch, gelatin, dimethicone, titanium dioxide, sodium lauryl sulfate, edible black ink, red iron oxide, yellow iron oxide, and/or black iron oxide.
Dosage
Because Symbyax contains two different active ingredients, the dosage of the medication is different compared to other prescription medications. Symbyax is also approved for use in children as young as 10 years old.
Adult patients typically start with the lowest dose at 6mg of olanzapine/25mg of fluoxetine. Children start with 3 mg of olanzapine/25mg of fluoxetine. The medication should be taken in the evening just before bedtime.
Symbyax comes in the following dosages:
- 3 mg/25 mg
- 6 mg/25 mg
- 6 mg/50 mg
- 12 mg/25 mg
- 12 mg/50 mg
