A client with schizophrenia has received standard antipsychotics for a year. His hallucinations are
  less intrusive, but the client remains apathetic, has poverty of thought, cannot work, and is socially
  isolated.
 
  To address these symptoms, the nurse might expect the psychiatrist to prescribe
  a. haloperidol (Haldol).
  b. olanzapine (Zyprexa).
  c. diphenhydramine (Benadryl).
  d. chlorpromazine (Thorazine).

B
Olanzapine is an atypical antipsychotic that targets both positive and negative symptoms of
schizophrenia. Options A and D are standard antipsychotics that target only positive symptoms.
Option C is an antihistamine.
