Use of intramuscular clozapine in initiating and maintaining clozapine treatment in treatment-resistant schizophrenia | C4C

  • Applicant: Cecilia Casetta
  • Project ID: 19-020

Clozapine is the gold standard treatment for treatment resistant schizophrenia but it is rarely enforced and therefore rarely used in non-compliant patients. We aim to demonstrate that the use of intramuscular (IM) clozapine allows patients who have refused the oral formulation to be started and maintained on clozapine.
