It's not really potent it just works differently it actually binds the D2 receptor at a lower level than any other antipsychotic so there is another mechanism they haven't figured out yet. The death is from agranulocytosis which only occurs at a 1% rate so 99 people of 100 who take it will be fine and the other one just has to stop. They test you all the time to make sure this doesn't happen.
