I've given Clozaril dozens of times. I only had a handful of Clozaril patients until I worked in a long-term facility. There, you see a very different patient population vs. the regular short term facility most medical hospitals have.
I would not go faster than the recommended guidelines. If anything goes wrong, and a lot can go wrong even when following the recommended guidelines, you're just going to open yourself up to (possibly jusftified) criticisms. The criticisms may unfairly connect the accelerated titration with the problem whether or not it would've happened due to the accelerated titration (and how the heck would you be able to figure that out?)
I don't know why your attending wants to go faster than the recommended titration rate. If he/she has any insights into that you should ask him/her.
I know there's a risk of hypotension and cardiovascular collapse
Another big thing to factor is the ANC. Going too much too fast could cause the ANC to plummet. Some theorize (though I've never seen data to back it up) that titrating too much too fast may drop the ANC to the point where you'd have to stop the Clozaril but if you did it at a slow and steady pace, the bone marrow may have been able to compensate and tolerate the Clozaril.
There is some data suggesting that Clozaril suppression of bone marrow's production of blood cells may be permanent. E.g. ANC levels may not return to where they were before it started, stopping Clozaril in some and restarting it later may have accelerated drops in ANC not seen before.
Seizure is another thing to worry about. Although the product guidelines don't mention this, several mention that someone on Clozaril need to be put on a anti-seizure medication.
Another factor is that while titrating up, there are specific milestone events that the doctor should consider. E.g. several texts recommend that once the patient's Clozaril level reaches 400 mg a day, that the patient be put on Depakote to prevent seizures. Some recommend that serum Clozaril levels be taken and used as a factor in the determination in the titration.
But my attending was asking me if we could go any faster on the titration.
Again don't know why he/she is asking you. It's not out of the ordinary for a psychiatrist, even with several years of experience, to have little experience with Clozaril patients because you only start accumulating treatment resistant patients in specific settings such as a long term facility.
