Evaluation of the use of intramuscular clozapine

Abstract

Poster from the Trent Study Day 2019

Background: Use of clozapine via the intramuscular route (IM) has recently started at the Hospital. It was felt important to review current use alongside the literature and guidance from elsewhere to inform content in the trust clozapine guideline and facilitate safe and effective use of this treatment strategy. There is little information regarding IM clozapine in the literature. Some services have guidelines.
