  • Title: A case of clozapine-induced neuroleptic malignant syndrome.
    Author: Miller DD, Sharafuddin MJ, Kathol RG.
    Journal: J Clin Psychiatry; 1991 Mar; 52(3):99-101. PubMed ID: 1672311.
    Abstract:
    The treatment of psychotic symptoms in patients with a previous history of neuroleptic malignant syndrome (NMS) remains a dilemma. The authors describe a case in which clozapine caused NMS in a schizophrenic man who had previously experienced NMS during treatment with various antipsychotics. To their knowledge, this is the first report of "classical" NMS caused by clozapine alone.
