Core Tip |
About 40%-70% of the patients develop clozapine-resistant schizophrenia (CRS), which has serious health, economic, and social consequences. Research on CRS has provided little support for the efficacy of psychotropics, electroconvulsive therapy, and cognitive-behavioural therapy in augmenting clozapine non-response. Therefore, newer approaches are needed including a clinical consensus about using the most effective of the currently available augmentation strategies. Augmentation with long-acting antipsychotic injections or multi-component psychosocial interventions could also be tried. Finally, the best option at present may be to prevent clozapine resistance from developing by optimizing clozapine treatment and collaborating with patients and caregivers to ensure its continuation. |
