Abstract
Neutropenia is a well‐known adverse side‐effect of clozapine that can also be seen with other atypical antipsychotics. In this article the authors discuss a patient who experienced neutropenia with clozapine and who subsequently redeveloped neutropenia with aripiprazole after a short trial. The case illustrates that close monitoring and caution is advisable when trialing patients on any further antipsychotics after a neutropenic event with clozapine.
