Q

Why is Clozapine used last?

A
  • it causes agranulocytosis, so you must monitor WBC
  • very rare hypersensitivity reaction called……. Drug reaction w/ Eosinophillia and Systemic Symptoms (DRESS)
  • you’ll see skin eruptions and other allergic signs
  • doctors must be trained before using this drug

Q

Besides DRESS what else does Clozapine cause?

Treatment? How does it work?

Olanzapine or Clozapine will be in the question stem

A
  • Neuroleptic Malignant Syndrome (NMS)
  • rare, severe parkinsons like mvt disorder w/ wide spread muscle contraction
  • patients develop rhabdomyolysis

Treatment = Dantrolene, which stops malignant hyperthermia by closing the rhyanodine receptor so that calcium cant get out which limits the profound muscle contractions
