Use of clozapine for psychosis and chorea in Huntington's disease systematic narrative review
The degenerative nature of Huntington's disease drastically reduces quality of life for sufferers while limiting life expectancy itself. Among other sequalae, psychosis and chorea remain persistently difficult disease manifestations to manage for patients. Clozapine is an atypical antipsychotic medication with a multineuroreceptor affinity, which gives it a broad range of action. Clozapine has been documented to have good remedial actions on chorea and psychosis in patients with Huntington's disease. Here the authors make the case for further research.
