Reduc. in dosage - Detox from Clozapine
I've been given Clozapine (an atypical antipsychotic) surreptitiously for 5 years. I had mild OCD which my parents took as schizophrenia. They put me on ~35 mg clozapine per day (given to me at night, mixed in my meal). They actually purchased 100 mg tablets but split them into 3 pieces of varying sizes. Now, I consulted a psychiatrist who ruled out Schizophrenia. Hence, I want to detox from Clozapine. Doctor says I should reduce 5-10 mg, and see if it works for 15 days. What's the formula? 10%
