Abstract
Clozapine, an ‘atypical’ antipsychotic drug, rarely induces allergic complications, which usually present as cutaneous reactions. We report the case of a 69-year-old woman, suffering from chronic schizophrenia, who developed an allergic asthmatic reaction following clozapine therapy. Intensive-care treatment was necessary. The reaction could be repeated by further exposure to the drug. Skin tests for hypersensitivity were negative.
