The experiments were carried out on outbred male rats (n=15). The animals were split into 3 groups, 5 animals in each: 1) control (intact rats); 2) clozapine, 3) clozapine and ethanol. Clozapine at a dose of 150 mg/kg of the animal’s body weight was administered orally under anesthesia (chloralose), clozapine (150 mg/kg) with ethanol at a dose of 5 ml/kg — orally. Rats were removed from the experiment after 3 hours by decapitation. Samples of liver tissue were studied using light microscopy.

The assessment was done using the F-test. Forensic chemical analysis was carried out using a high-performance liquid chromatograph equipped with a mass detector.

It was found that after combined administration of clozapine and ethanol, the blood serum clozapine was 1.94-fold and clozapine-N-oxide was 2.3-fold lower than when clozapine was administered as a single drug while the content of norclozapine showed no difference.Conclusion.

Purpose: identification of pathological changes in the liver at early stages of the effect of clozapine and clozapine combined with ethanol to improve the diagnosis of this acute exposure.Materials and methods. The experiments were carried out on outbred male rats (n=15). The animals were split into 3 groups, 5 animals in each: 1) control (intact rats); 2) clozapine, 3) clozapine and ethanol.
