My experience with olanzapine has been that it does cause activation and potentially hypomania in bipolar and schizoaffective patients. This often comes as a relief to patients mired in clozapine sedation, but it has possible risks of worsening cycles.

There are anecdotal reports (many members of the Lilly Advisory Board for Zyprexa concur) suggesting some activation of bipolar patients if mood stabilizers are not coadministered.
