Variable: The answer depends on how much you were taking and how long you were taking it. Typically, a temporary episode of mild agitation and possibly insomnia will occur but dissipate within 2-4 weeks. You may experience nothing. However, it is best not to take if not absolutely necessary. Don't believe your doctor would have stopped it if he/she thought it would seriously harm you.

Clozapine: Agree with earlier response that problems can be related to dose and duration of medication. Rapid discontinuation off of high doses can cause withdrawal symptoms such as headache, agitation, dizziness, nausea, vomiting, orthostatic hypotension, return of mania or rebound psychosis, or serotonin syndrome. I am assuming you were on low dose and might not have any adverse effects.
