I can't find any medication named calazapin. There are a few that are close to that spelling, but they're different types of medications. 

 

Since I can't answer about that particular medication, let me say this -- If you need medication, there is nothing wrong about asking your doctor about a specific medication. If the medication you're asking about is a legitimate medication used for something she's treating you for, she shouldn't "freak out," nor should she think you're trying to get messed up off it unless this is a medication that she's seeing people abuse. Even then, as your doctor, she should discuss it with you.

 

Hope this helps. Feel free to reply with the correct spelling if you want.
