Abstract
SUMMARYClozapine is the only antipsychotic licensed for treatment of Parkinson's disease psychosis (PDP) but is infrequently used in the National Health Service because of obstacles to the integration of hospital-based neurological/geriatric services with clozapine clinics run by community mental health teams. This commentary points out the mismatch between NICE quality standards on antipsychotic treatment for PDP and current clinical practice. It suggests that forthcoming integrated care systems should be able to overcome these obstacles, enabling innovative models for providing clozapine treatment for PDP such as those described by Taylor et al, so that clozapine treatment becomes a right for patients and their families.
