i didn’t cough but i know clozapine can cause heart problems and heart problems can cause coughing. it might be a coincidence though. could you have caught a cold or something?

Interesting, i definitely have a higher resting pulse since starting and the caughing.

Ive been through a round of antibiotics and am on an inhaler for the cough now. Its a little better but not much

clozapine gave me tachycardia. had to take heart medicine with it. you should get it checked if its high enough to make u feel weak or short of breath. a high heart rate for a long time can change the heart muscle

Okay for sure. Thank you for the knowledge.

Ill ask my pdoc about it all
