I am on clozaril. I think it is the generic kind . I take 200 mg at bedtime, which is good because it really knocks me out for the night, I used to never sleep at night I would stay up in the night and sleep in the day, but that got me nowhere except in the hospital. I now, since taking clozaril, sleep at night, i even go to bed very early, sometime it depresses me as my body is accepting it, but I have to say i Love it, basically because it let's me sleep.For the past 2 years on it i can say I'm happy more often, get work done i the day, Your body may take some adjusting to it, its better than being on prolixin which I was on at one time for 8 years suffering at the systems solution to my problem.I had a hospital stay about 3 years ago for 21 days to get the medication change going good, but it was worth it.I hope you find the answer to your situation andhave a happy day-avlady
