Summary: Paul Farmer, from the mental health charity MIND, says Clozapine is a drug that can dramatically control schizophrenia but it can cause serious side effects which can prove fatal if not picked up. The medicines regulator – the MHRA – reported 339 fatal adverse reactions in 2012 suspected of being linked to the drug. He said MIND would be writing to the regulator to see if further restrictions were needed around the way the drug is used.
