My brother has been taking clozapine for six years with excellent results, but now he is in a crisis and hearing voices again. He was previously on Zyprexa and Seroquel, which didn't work. We are considering increasing his clozapine dosage and adding sulpiride. How long will it take to see results, and what else can be done to help him?
