Faster TMS for schizophrenia with clozapine
Part of Mental health clinical trials.
This trial tests whether a rapid form of brain stimulation (accelerated TMS) can improve symptoms in people with schizophrenia or schizoaffective disorder who are already taking clozapine. It aims to see if this treatment adds extra benefit for those who haven't responded well enough to other antipsychotics.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
