Several important
behavioral and anatomical effects were observed. |
|
First, all of the
animals appeared to develop an aversion to the taste and/or subjective
effects of the medications. |
|
Second, a
significant number of monkeys became aggressive during the study |
|
(2/3 of the
olanzapine recipients, 1/3 of the haloperidol recipients). |
|
Third, chronic
exposure to haloperidol and olanzapine resulted in comparable and diffuse
reductions in brain volume and brain weight. |
