Clozapine
Antipsychotic used in treatment-resistant schizophrenia, with required monitoring
Clozapine is reserved for schizophrenia that has not responded to other treatments. Patients on Clozapine are enrolled in a national monitoring program with regular blood work because of a rare but serious effect on white blood cells.
How the pharmacy helps
We dispense Clozapine within the Clozaril Support and Assistance Network (CSAN) and similar programs. Refills require up-to-date blood work — we coordinate with the prescriber and lab.

Clozapine can rarely lower white blood cells. Monitoring catches changes early so action can be taken before there is a serious infection risk.
No. The program requires the latest result on file before each fill.
Restarting after several missed days requires a slow re-titration with the prescriber. Do not just resume the previous dose.
