Good info!
Thanks!

aripiprazole 20 mg ⇆ clozapine125 mg

And they had me on 325 of clozapine lol

My pdoc cancelled our appointment today

Did they say why? Will you see them soon?

Yes, the calculator has its limitations. Accuracy is sacrificed in order to simplify things. Clearly there’s no standard dose that is effective for all patients. The best way to determinine equivalence is pharmacogenetic testing. It’s a starting point.
