PG and meds: There are guidelines on revealing test results such as being PG . Whether your test shows that you're PG or not, you're taking clozapine, are concerned about these issues, and if you've had a PG test and are awaiting those results and have not heard back, it may soothe your mind to give a call, just to be certain. It's perfectly okay to do that.

Clozapine: It would be imperative that your psychiatrist and obstetrician work closely together if you take Clozapine or suffer from conditions like Schizophrenia, Schizoaffective Disorder and bipolar Disorder. If you have been on Clozapine for over a year, monthly blood tests are indicated.
