In reply to WHAT IS CLOZAPINE USED FOR?, posted by pretty_paints on July 23, 2005, at 10:28:57
Hi Katie,
Hospital sounds yuck. Hospital is very boring LOL! I remember a man who thought he was possessed by demons.
>The new doc says we will start clozapine this week.....
I hope it helps :-) It probably will. You'll probably start at 12.5mg once or twice daily on the first day. There are three brand names now, you might not get Clozaril. You might get Denzapine or Zaponex.
>What other diagnoses are there for taking clozapine?
Clozapine is most commonly used to treat schizophrenia, which (I believe) is why you'll be taking it. Clozapine is also used to treat schizoaffective disorder.
>Hope your revision is going ok!
It's not!
Love Ed xxxx
