How Regulatory Barriers Are Harming Patients in Need of Clozapine with Rachel Streiff

In this episode of the Self Disclosed Podcast, host Patrick Gilligan sits down with Rachel Streiff, a passionate advocate for individuals living with serious mental illness and their families. Rachel shares her personal journey into the world of clozapine, an antipsychotic medication used for treatment-resistant schizophrenia, and discusses the significant barriers patients face in accessing this life-saving treatment. Rachel highlights the challenges posed by the FDA's Clozapine REMS (Risk Evaluation and Mitigation Strategy) program, which has created unnecessary hurdles for both patients and healthcare providers. With only about 10% of those indicated for clozapine actually receiving it, Rachel emphasizes the urgent need for change in how this medication is prescribed and monitored. Join us as we explore the stigma surrounding clozapine, the impact of regulatory barriers, and the grassroots movement led by the "Angry Moms" to advocate for better access to mental health care. Rachel also shares her insights on the upcoming FDA committee hearing and how listeners can support the cause.
