During this period, olanzapine dosage will be determined according to the discretion of the treating physician. In addition, 5 study visits (at 2, 4, 8, 12, and 16 weeks) will take place. Study medication (betahistine or matching placebo) will be administered BID (in the morning and together with olanzapine in the evening).\n\nThe primary statistical hypothesis to be tested is that the mean change from Baseline to Week 16 will be different between the treatment and placebo groups'}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'ALL', 'stdAges': ['CHILD', 'ADULT'], 'maximumAge': '45 Years', 'minimumAge': '16 Years', 'healthyVolunteers': False, 'eligibilityCriteria': "Inclusion Criteria:\n\n* Subject (or legal guardian) is capable and willing to provide signed written informed consent;\n* Male or female subjects 16 to 45 years of age;\n* Body mass index in the range of 18.5 to 35 kg/m2;\n* Diagnosed as having schizophrenia, schizoaffective disorder, schizophreniform disorder or a psychosis disorder that is not otherwise specified (NOS) according to the DSM-IV criteria;\n* Maximum of 6 weeks cumulative lifetime exposure to risperidone, OR maximum of 3 weeks cumulative lifetime exposure to any other antipsychotic medication;\n* Designated by the managing physician to be appropriate for treatment with olanzapine;
