My relative is a psychiatric nurse and he informed me that psychotropic medication can interact with the drugs used to treat patients who contract Covid 19. Clozopine is stopped when a patient has the virus. That is what I take.
Clozopine with Risperidone. I am a photographer so self isolating is not an issue. Why did my psychiatrist not warn me of this?

Dear Constellations,

That sounds so scary and awful. Although I am not on Clozopine or Risperidone, I am on other psychiatric medications and I fear that if I am hospitalized for the SARS Covid-19 virus, that these will be be discontinued while I am a patient. That is a terrifying prospect. I hope that you do not contract the novel coronavirus and that if you do you will not suffer from whatever treatment is given to you. I know that is a pathetic response to what you posted, but I just don't know what else to say. So very, very sorry.

Sincerely yours, Yao Wen

Your pdoc probably doesn't know. After all, everything regarding covid is so unclear at this point.

I'm wondering about the vaccine with regard to psych meds. I hope some researchers are checking into it.

Yeah that’s what I’ve been wondering too. It seems like a lot of people can’t take it. Kids under 16 and people with severe allergies. I do trust it but I also question the vaccine sometimes.
