The incidence of diabetes in atypical antipsychotic users differs according to agent—results from a multisite epidemiologic study

Abstract

Relative to typical antipsychotics, aripiprazole, ziprasidone, risperidone and quetiapine were not associated with an increased risk of diabetes; olanzapine and clozapine were associated with an increased risk. This analysis constitutes the largest post-marketing pharmacoepidemiologic study to date that includes the newer agents.
