We found that clozapine use was an independent risk factor for COVID-19 positivity (OR=1.81 95% CI=1.13-2.90), inpatient care admission (OR=3.01, 95% CI=1.12-8.06).</p><p><strong>Conclusion: </strong>In our study, clozapine use was associated with an increased risk of COVID-19 positivity and inpatient care admission; however, it was not associated with ICU admission or death. Due to the frequent follow-up of patients using clozapine and the effects of clozapine on immunity, the frequency and/or identification of COVID-19 may be increased in these patients. Clozapine toxicity, granulocytopenia or agranulocytosis during the COVID-19 infection may have increased these patients' hospitalisation frequency.</p>","PeriodicalId":51142,"journal":{"name":"Noropsikiyatri Arsivi-Archives of Neuropsychiatry","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC10242284/pdf/archneuro-60-99.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"9652563","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
