Editing Clozapine (section)

=== Mortality ===
The overall all cause mortality for people with serious psychotic illnesses such as schizophrenia who are prescribed clozapine is lower than those who take other treatments and much lower than those who take no drug treatments at all. Reductions are particularly marked for death by suicide but also from all natural causes. This is demonstrated by studies which have used whole-population databases, such as those completed in Sweden, Finland, Denmark and Taiwan and following [[systematic review]] and [[meta-analysis]].<ref>{{cite journal | vauthors = Correll CU, Solmi M, Croatto G, Schneider LK, Rohani-Montez SC, Fairley L, Smith N, Bitter I, Gorwood P, Taipale H, Tiihonen J | title = Mortality in people with schizophrenia: a systematic review and meta-analysis of relative risk and aggravating or attenuating factors | journal = World Psychiatry | volume = 21 | issue = 2 | pages = 248–271 | date = June 2022 | pmid = 35524619 | doi = 10.1002/wps.20994 | pmc = 9077617 }}</ref><ref>{{cite journal | vauthors = Fernandez-Egea E, Flanagan RJ, Taylor D, Gaughran F, Lawrie SM, Jenkins C, Smith S, Howes OD, MacCabe JH | title = Mortality associated with clozapine: what is the evidence? | journal = The British Journal of Psychiatry | volume = 225 | issue = 3 | pages = 357–359 | date = September 2024 | pmid = 39354861 | doi = 10.1192/bjp.2024.88 }}</ref>
