Olanzapine is an atypical antipsychotic, used to treat various mental disorders.

Some of the side effects it causes includes: nausea, drowsiness, weight gain and severe sedation.

I would think that due to the sedation, drowsiness and the possibility of dizziness, some kids may like to abuse it, because these are similar to the effects of a narcotic.

There is also the possibility that he doesn't know what they really are and was told they are something else.
