Farmacologia
La clozapina es un agente psicotrópico que pertenece a la clase química de derivados del benzisoxazol y está indicado para el tratamiento de la esquizofrenia. La clozapina es un antagonista selectivo con monoaminérgicos alta afinidad por la serotonina tipo 2 (5HT2), la dopamina tipo 2 (D2), 1 y 2 adrenérgicos y los receptores histaminérgicos H1. Clozapina actúa como un antagonista de los receptores, pero con menor potencia. Antagonismo en otros receptores de dopamina y 5HT2 con afinidades receptoras similares puede explicar algunos de los otros efectos terapéuticos y secundarios de la clozapina. Clozapina antagonismo de receptores muscarínicos M1-5 receptores pueden explicar sus efectos anticolinérgicos. Clozapina antagonismo de los receptores H1 de histamina puede explicar la somnolencia observada con esta droga. Clozapina antagonismo de los receptores adrenérgicos a1 puede explicar la hipotensión ortostática observada con esta droga.
