Clozapine is an atypical antipsychotic with proven efficacy in the management of treatment-resistant schizophrenia. It has well-documented side effects. Stuttering is defined as a disturbance in the normal functioning of fluency and temporal structuring of speech.

In this article, we describe a case in which stuttering following a generalized seizure was observed when increasing doses of clozapine.
