V C Kirpekar1, S M Deshpande, P P Joshi.   

Abstract

Myocarditis is a rare and potentially life-threatening complication of clozapine. We report the case of a 2 6-year-old patient who developed reversible myocarditis during treatment with clozapine for chronic resistant schizophrenia. The patient recovered rapidly on withdrawal of clozapine and with supportive management.
