hi
Central nervous system: Drowsiness (39% to 46%), dizziness (19% to 27%), insomnia (2% to 20%
are the main side effects of withdrawal of clozapine.......no one will suggest clozapine with hypothyroidism associated depression/anxiety....just adjust the dose of thyroxine and she wont be needing clozapine.....for now adjust the sleeplessness with little bit of clonazepam for few days or follow a tapering finishing of cloazpine meaning slowly take it off...and secondly wht if your daughter gets fat or pregnant ....clozapine is contraindicated
take care
