Abstract:
Despite advancement in psychopharmacology, treatment-resistant schizophrenia still poses a challenge to modern psychiatry. We present four patients with schizophrenia treated with clozapine and ECT. One patient who developed neuroleptic malignant syndrome (NMS) on conventional neuroleptics experienced no complications with this combination.
