OK...you might not want to hear this right now if so please disregard....you guys have spent what 6 weeks getting her on this med and she is not up to a therapeutic dose yet...it may as well be as good as spring water if it's not in the therapeutic range. Get a blood level done on clozapine if it's not up to 400ng/ml it's below what's needed. Keep tapering up....they do it so slow with this med that it can take a full 6 months to get up to an effective level...It sucks but if you stop trying this med then that is pretty much it, you're going to be stuck with a med that's not effective and you haven't really given this one a chance to work.
That being said...I feel terrible for what is happening to you and your family right now and I did pray for you....hoping for the best outcome...
