Clozapine is a tricyclic dibenzodiazepine, classified as an atypical antipsychotic agent. Clozapine displays affinity to various neuroreceptors with a particularly low affinity to the dopamine receptors, thus breaking the mold of first-generation antipsychotics and deeming it "atypical". . This low affinity to dopamine receptors results in fewer extrapyramidal side effects,...
