Abstract
- We experienced clinical improvement of psychotic symptoms and tardive dystonia during clozapine therapy in a 24 year-old-schizophrenic woman who had received antipsychotics for 3.7 years. However, we experienced the side effects of mortal hypotension and seizure. So we reported the above case and reviewed the literature about clozapine-induced hypotension and seizure.
