In this study, the Anti-obesity Agent is being tested to see if it can treat weight gain that may be associated with taking olanzapine.

The purposes of this study are to determine the safety of olanzapine when given in combination with the Anti-obesity Agent and any side effects that might be associated with it and whether weight-gain agent can help treat weight gain that may be associated with taking olanzapine.
