Introduction

Tardive syndromes (TS) resulting from prolonged

exposure to dopamine receptor blocking agents are frequent. Cloza-

pine is considered to have a low risk of causing new onset TS and

accounts therefore as an interesting option in patients with invali-

dating TS.

Objectives

Our study aims to describe clozapine indications in

patients experiencing TS.

Methods

Presentation of the clinical cases of five patients, who

experienced different kinds of TS secondary to 1st and 2nd gener-

ation anti-psychotic treatment.

Results

We present the cases of AB aged 41, MJ aged 40, HM aged

31 and AS aged 30, diagnosed with schizophrenia; and FB aged

24,diagnosed with schizoaffective disorder. Adverse side effects

to conventional anti-psychotics such as limb and trunk tremors

were described for AB, choreic limb movements, axial and segmen-

tal dystonia for MJ, AS, FB and oculogyration for FB. All patients

were switched to atypical anti-psychotics without improvement

of the TS. The switch to clozapine, associated with abotulinum

injection for MJ, led to regression of the TS and improvement of

clinical signs. In fact, according to several studies, clozapine seems

to be an interesting option when invalidating TS occurs. The low

prevalence of TS under clozapine can be explained by its low affin-

ity for striatal-D2 receptors, its anti-serotonin and anti-cholinergic

effects.

Conclusions

Clozapine should be considered in symptomatic

patients who develop TSwhile receiving other anti-psychotics. Fur-

ther research on mechanism of TS and clozapine effect on TS is

needed.

Introduction

Atypical anti-psychotics are increasingly pre-

scribed, given their tolerance. Among these anti-psychotic

olanzapine, known for its adverse metabolic effects. By against

an adverse event type rhabdomyolysis with olanzapine appears

uncommon (<1%) and few clinical cases have been reported in the

literature.

Aim

The aim of our study is to illustrate with a clinical case the

occurrence of an isolated rhabdomyolysis with olanzapine.

Materiel and method

Starting from the study of the case of a

patientwith rhabdomyolysiswith olanzapinewe studied the litera-

ture data. Clinical vignette: it is about a patient aged 25 followed for

bipolar disorder type I. He responded to the association olanzapine

and valproic acid then to valproic acid only. His last hospitaliza-

tion for manic relapse dating to September 9, 2015 occurred in a

context of treatment discontinuation. Upon admission the patient

underwent an oral treatment based olanzapine and valproic acid.

A dosage of creatine phosphokinase (CPK) done systematically, on

September 11 showed high levels of (CPK) to 973 (U/L) without

clinical signs of neuroleptic malignant syndrome. The electrocar-

diogram and biological tests results were normal. Other etiologies

can lead to elevated (CPK) were eliminated. The persistent eleva-

tion of CPK motivated the arrest of olanzapine. The evolution was

marked by a return to normal CPK rates after 15 days. The olanzap-

ine was replaced by haloperidol and vaproic acid maintained. The

pharmacovigilance investigation conclude to the accountability of

olanzapine in this rhabdomyolysis.

Conclusion

Second generation, anti-psychotics are known for

their better tolerance compared to conventional antipsychotics.

However, they are not devoid of side effects.

Introduction

Clozapine, is widely prescribed for treatment of

refractory schizophrenia, but its use may be limited by poten-

tially serious adverse effects. Themost feared complication remains

agranulocytosis [absolute neutrophil count (ANC) < 500/mm

3

],

which occurs in 1% of patients. Guidelines recommend immediate

cessationuntil the granulocyte count normalizes, but little is known

about the subsequent treatment and the possibility of restoring

clozapine.

Objectives

To know procedures that allow clozapine rechallenge

after induced agranulocytosis in refractory schizophrenia.

Methods

We present a clinical case of agranulocytosis and evo-

lution after simple reinstitution of clozapine.

Results

A 38-year-old woman diagnosed refractory schizophre-

nia. After 10 years with clozapine (300mg/day), we find neu-

tropenia (ANC 1420/mm

3

) in a monthly control blood count with

progression to agranulocytosis (ANC 460/mm

3

) in the following

month. We suspend clozapine and started olanzapine (20mg/day)

with restoration of haematological values in a period of one month.

The patient had psychotic decompensation at two months after

the change with lack of response to different psychopharmaco-

logical strategies for five months. According to the hematology

department we decided to re-introduce clozapine (200mg/day)

in combination with olanzapine with complete clinical remission.

Between the 3rd and 9th week after rechallenge we observe a

progressive decline in ANC, while remaining within the range of

normal. From the 9th week and in the last 6months neutrophil

counts remained stable.

Conclusions

Although, more research is needed to establish the

safety to rechallenge of clozapine after agranulocytosis, it must be

an alternative to consider when other treatment strategies fail.
