Portable blood test
Our research team has worked with a diagnostic testing company to develop a solution for under use of clozapine. As a result, they’ve created a portable device which allows clinicians to easily monitor the levels of clozapine in a patient’s blood almost instantly.
This new device means doctors can adjust doses for patients according to how they’re responding to treatment or the side effects they’re having. It also means that doctors can get important information on how drug levels may have fluctuated as a result of certain lifestyle changes (such as if a person got ill, or quit smoking).
