Abrubt discontinuation of antipsychotic s can cause some side effects,but considering low dose of Olanzapine,it is less likely to result into significant side effects,still better to consult treating Psychiatrist

No withdrawals symptom seen for abruptly stopping of 5mg oleanz.how ever chance of worsening of her behavioral distrubance can be possible. Hence keep a watch on her behaviors and if any changes noticed then immediately meet a psychiatrist

If the patient does not take medicine, it will not cause any side effects. I hope the patient is fine now and symptom free, if there are any symptoms, please show a doctor.
