摘要
Blood concentrations of clozapine in Taiwanese patients appeared approximately 30-50 % higher than that from Caucasian patients, and women possessed a higher blood levels. Fluvoxamine was reported to increase the clozapine levels, reduce clozapine-related weight gain and metabolic disturbances, and improved general psychopathology. Clothiapine, a chemical structure analogue of clozapine, showed potential of benefitting patients who are unsuitable for clozapine treatment in Taiwan. Obsessive/compulsive symptom (OCS) is a common side effect of clozapine. Concentrations of clozapine were remarkably higher in patients with OCS than in those without. In conclusion, clozapine is a widely used in patients with schizophrenia in Taiwan.
