Several more recent studies found no sex differences in treatment response to neuroleptic medication, 183 - 186 and two studies of neuroleptic-refractory patients showed a trend for males to respond better to clozapine treatment than females 187 , 188 (although results from studies of neuroleptic-refractory patients might, not be generalizable).The inconsistency in results regarding sex differences in treatment response to antipsychotic medication may be due to differences in choice of neuroleptic and dose.
