3 PRE-INITIATION PHASE 1 Pre-initiation phase of clozapine. A full description for the initiation of clozapine is given in the Summary of Product Characteristics (SPC) for Clozaril. All staff involved in this process should familiarise themselves fully with these guidelines. Pre-initiation checklist Does the patient have a diagnosis of treatment resistant schizophrenia? Has the patient been prescribed two previous antipsychotic agents, including a second generation antipsychotic, for a minimum of six weeks each? Does the patient fulfil the criteria for other indications as per the SPC? - Severe, untreatable neurological adverse reactions to other antipsychotic agents. - Psychotic disorders occurring during the course of Parkinson s Disease, where standard treatment has failed. - Has there been a full multidisciplinary meeting to discuss initiation as per CPA policy (Consultant Psychiatrist, Care Coordinator and other interested/involved parties)? Has the clinical team given consideration to the identified contra-indications to the use of clozapine? YES NO Contraindications (SPC Clozaril Novartis Pharmaceuticals UK) Patients unable to undergo regular blood tests.

4 substantial potential for causing agranulocytosis; concomitant use of depot antipsychotics is to be discouraged.

Physical examination: weight, height, pulse, blood pressure (sitting and standing), temperature, and waist circumference Electrocardiogram Completed Blood tests Full blood count Differential white cell count LFTs U & Es Lipids TFTs Random blood glucose Tropinin I or T CRP Medicines reconciliation GP contacted to advise of all medications prescribed and any other physical health concerns/treatments Substance history including alcohol, smoking, caffeine, illicit substances Details: - COMPLETE BASELINE OBSERVATIONS using Inpatient Initiation Pathway Observation Record (Page 8) of 12

Physical health acceptable? Bloods taken and within acceptable ranges? Consent obtained? Decision to initiate treatment?

Inform CMHT Team of intention to initiate clozapine as inpatient (planned admission) Completed 6.1 Preadmission Ensure pre-initiation checks (Section 4) and baseline assessments (Section 5) are fully completed and ready to start on first day of admission. Obtain GREEN result from CS before initiation begins. Result / Date 6.2 Titration Dependant on tolerability and results of physical observations, it may be necessary to slow down the titration regime in some cases. 6.3 Monitoring and observations. Complete Clozapine Initiation Observations See Appendix 1 Complete Inpatient Initiation Pathway Observation Record See Page 8 Please also refer to Guidelines for the monitoring of physical health for patients taking clozapine (MM 042) of 12
7 7 Inpatient Initiation dose regime The dose and monitoring regime outlined below is a guide to treatment as recommended by the manufacturer of Clozaril, Novartis, and is available via the website and the Clozaril Patient Monitoring Service (CS). An inpatient clozapine titration prescription must be completed so that dose administrations can be recorded. Monitoring and observation of the patient should be undertaken as outlined in the table from page 8.
