I think you will have to talk to your psychiatrist about this?

I used to take clozaril.  the whole deal is about the neutrophil count it has to stay above 1.5 for you to take it and if it ever goes below 1 then it's illegal to take it and you might never get to try it again (it's up to the pharm. company).
