Method: We report that clozapine was very effective to treat positive, negative, and cognitive symptoms and well tolerated to a treatment-resistant schizophrenia patient with severe type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM) under cautious blood-sugar monitoring. Results: Clozapine itself and discontinuation of other psychotropic and anticholinergic agents after switching may improve cognitive function and adherence to the treatment regimens for schizophrenia and DM. Conclusion: Clozapine can be administered to treatment-resistant schizophrenia patients even with severe DM with caution.展开更多
