Clozapine (5786-21-0)

　　Clozapine tablets are indicated for the treatment of both positive and negative symptoms of schizophrenia. They are effective across all subtypes of acute and chronic schizophrenia, with particularly good outcomes in the hallucinatory‑delusional and hebephrenic types. Clozapine can also alleviate affective symptoms associated with schizophrenia, such as depression, guilt, and anxiety. For patients who have failed or responded poorly to conventional antipsychotics, switching to clozapine may be beneficial. Additionally, it is used to manage agitation, excitement, and psychotic symptoms—including hallucinations and delusions—in mania and other psychotic disorders. However, due to its potential to cause agranulocytosis, it is generally not recommended as a first‑line agent.
