Zyprexa is infamous for aggravating and even causing diabetes in formerly healthy people. It's thought to do this by decreasing insulin sensitivity and thereby inducing hyperglycemia. There's evidence that Zyprexa also elevates triglyceride levels and thereby increases the risk of heart disease. Unfortunately it's much the same story with Seroquel, and there are additional concerns over the formation of cataracts with that drug.
