Abstract

A 32-year-old male patient with a history of treatment resistant paranoid schizophrenia developed neuroleptic malignant syndrome (NMS) during changeover of his antipsychotic medication from zuclopenthixol depot to clozapine. This case highlights the difficulties of cross-tapering two antipsychotics-that is, converting from a typical depot medication to an oral atypical antipsychotic.
