[Clozapine-induced cholestatic jaundice: a case report].
    Zeitschrift fur Gastroenterologie, 1989, Volume: 27, Issue:7

    We report on a patient who became jaundiced during treatment with clozapine (Leponex). Histologically, cholestatic hepatitis with single-cell necroses of hepatocytes and infiltration of the portal zones with eosinophilic granulocytes were found. The patient recovered after discontinuation of clozapine, and liver function tests returned to normal within 4 weeks. This adverse effect of clozapine suggests that this "atypical" tricyclic neuroleptic resembles the phenothiazines both with regard to therapeutic spectrum and side effects.
