Rechallenging Clozapine: A Look at Colony Stimulating Factors

In this episode, we discuss the treatment of agranulocytosis or neutropenia in patients on clozapine therapy, a rare yet serious scenario that clinicians may encounter. We delve into the possibility of rechallenging clozapine treatment after such an event and explore the use of colony-stimulating factors. What's the likelihood of agranulocytosis while prescribing clozapine long term?
