Clozapine (CLZ) is the only proven effective therapy for treatment‐resistant schizophrenia, but it is underutilized across the globe. Previous findings suggest a lack of experience with CLZ prescription and concerns about CLZ's pharmacological characteristics are the prime reasons for CLZ underutilization.

Such differences are important as nurse practitioners are becoming increasingly involved in prescribing CLZ.
