Last night in a fit of sleeplessness I seriously considered promoting a post here on tumblr just to say

CLOZAPINE MUST BE TITRATED BY 12.5 to 25 MG INCREMENTS

I realize it’s extremely unlikely to reach a psychiatrist who needs to hear this, but a girl can dream

[somuchtostudysolittletime]

I see your titration and I raise you ALWAYS PRESCRIBE THE PATIENTS CLOZAPINE DONT JUST LEAVE IT UNTIL THE MISSED DOSE WINDOW HAS BEEN AND GONE

[pharmdup]

Oh my god this. If they haven’t taken it in 48 hours, you gotta start the titration over, in 12.5 to 25 mg increments

THIS THIS THIS THIS THIS

“but the patient is really psychotic”

IF WE GIVE THEM SEIZURES, THAT WON’T HELP
