Your post surprised me Jay because I was in hospital just recently with a man who was taking Clozaril and 1mg lorazepam p.r.n for panic attacks. The BNF only advises of the possibility of increased sedative effects when combined with anxiolytics and hypnotics, no contraindications, nothing sinister there, though it's not the most exhaustive manual in the world.

I note that 'causality has not been clearly determined' re: (coma and respiratory depression, i.e. lung colapse) possibilities.
