R3's Physician Order Sheets (POS) were reviewed with no orders for Clozaril.
Residents Affected - Few
R5's POS was reviewed with an order for Clozapine (Clozaril) 100 mg, give 1.5 tablets by mouth twice daily.
On 4/22/25 at 1:23 PM, V8, RN, stated she was at the medication cart, getting medications ready for
another resident (R5) when R3 came up to her and asked for his medication, and she accidentally gave R3
R5's medication, Clozaril, and about 15 - 20 minutes later, she realized what she had done. V8 stated R3
was very lethargic, the Nurse Practitioner was notified, and R3 was sent to the hospital. V8 stated R3 was
admitted to the hospital for a few days.
On 4/22/25 at 1:30 PM, V10, Pharmacist, stated she reviewed R3's medication, and there were none of his
medications that would have interacted with the Clozaril/Clozapine. V10 stated receiving one dose of this
medication, would not have made R3 fatigued or lethargic. V10 stated when it is given regularly some
common side effects can be lethargy, blurred vision, etc. from it building in their system with multiple doses,
it would not normally be caused by just one dose.
On 4/22/25 at 2:45 PM, V2, DON, stated she was not here when the medication error with R3 took place,
she was called at home by V8, RN, and V8 had already notified R3's physician and called EMS, and R3
was sent to the hospital. R2 stated, (R3) did not have any adverse reaction from the medication; he is a
severe brittle diabetic, his blood sugars quickly go high to low. V2 stated she was told by the hospital R3
was hypoglycemic upon arrival to the ER and was admitted . V2 stated prior to R3 going to the hospital,
R3's blood sugar was 300 and he was given 22 units of insulin, and depending on when the insulin was
given and he ate, could have caused his blood sugar to drop quickly, which is normal for R3. V2 stated they
have changed his insulin and accu-check times to make sure when he is high and needs insulin, that he
eats right then and doesn't wait. V2 stated R3 knows when his blood sugar is low and will get peanut butter
cups and juice. V2 stated she is a diabetic and hypoglycemia can cause lethargy. V2 stated when a nurse is
administering medications, she would expect them to follow the rights of medication administration, right
medication, right person, right time, right frequency, etc.
On 4/22/25 at 2:55 PM, R3 stated he doesn't remember anything about the incident on 4/17/25, or for a
couple of days after. R3 stated he woke up in the hospital and was told they thought he had been given the
wrong medication, but that is all he was told. R3 stated his blood sugar goes up and down quickly, and now
he doesn't take his insulin until he eats so it won't drop. R3 stated he knows when his blood sugar is low
and he will get some candy to raise it. R3 stated when his blood sugar is low, he feels bad and sometimes
will black out.
