Abstract:Objective To investigate the effect of olanzapine combined with aripiprazole on blood lipid and glucose levels in female patients with first-episode schizophrenia.Methods Totally 156 female patients with first-episode schizophrenia were enrolled from May 2015 to January 2017 in Xinjiang Production and Construction Corps Third Division Hospital;they were randomly divided into control group(n =75,treated with olanzapine) and observation group (n =81,treated with olanzapine and aripiprazole).Fasting blood glucose,postprandial 2 h blood glucose,total cholesterol,triacylglycerol,high-density lipoprotein cholesterol,low-density lipoprotein cholesterol,body mass index,waistline and hipline were analyzed before and 3 months after treatment.Adverse reactions were observed during treatment.Results Levels of postprandial 2 h blood glucose,total cholesterol,triacylglycerol and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol after treatment significantly increased compared to those before treatment in control group (P < 0.05).Levels of fasting blood glucose,total cholesterol and triacylglycerol after treatment significantly decreased compared to those before treatment in observation group(P < 0.05).Levels of fasting blood glucose,postprandial 2 h blood glucose,total cholesterol and triacylglycerol in observation group after treatment were significantly lower than those in control group[(4.50 ± 0.42) mmol/L vs (4.90 ± 0.32) mmol/L,(5.30 ±0.31)mmol/L vs (5.90 ±0.21) mmol/L,(3.80 ± 0.32) mmol/L vs (4.40 ±0.41) mmol/L,(1.10 ±0.21) mmol/L vs (1.40 ± 0.12) mmol/L] (P < 0.05).Body mass index,waisdine and hipline in observation group after treatment were significantly less than those in control group [(22.3 ± 0.3)kg/m2 vs (26.3 ± 0.5)kg/m2,(88 ± 11) cm vs (92 ± 11) cm,(129 ± 10) cm vs (136 ± 8) cm] (P < 0.05).Incidences of drowsiness,fatigue,vomit and tachycardia in observation group were significantly lower than those in control group (P < 0.05).Conclusion Olanzapine combined with aripiprazole treating first-episode schizophrenia has optimistic effects on blood glucose,blood lipid and body weight control in female patients.
