Dear lybrate-user,
with clozapine 600 mg alone, if you were good, your psychiatrist would not have added amisulpride. Please talk to your psychiatrist and the family member who accompanies you, about how good you were with clozapine 600 mg. By the way, amisulpride must be 100 mg - not 10 mg as you have mentioned.

Amisulpride is not a medication for depression. It is prescribed for psychosis. Most likely, you are having depressive symptoms as prodromal symptoms before another psychotic break. Consult your psychiatrist for evaluation and further management. Don't change dosage or switch to other medications without consultation.

Dear Sir Thank you for your query.
A lot of people with schizophrenia have to take more than one medicine at a time. The treatment prescribed to a person depends on a lot of factors like the severity of illness and response to medications. More than one medicine can be taken at a time for schizophrenia.

Amisulpride, clozapine and certain newer antipsychotics on a particular dosage can act on negative symptoms, which varies between every individual. Combining with psycho-social rehabilitation helps mostly, else medicines alone cannot give full benefits. Despite these sometimes there is no improvement in few.

Schizophrenia is a very complex and difficult disease to treat, even with medication. All psychotropic medicines have side-effects: that is inescapable. But I suspect that you are depending entirely on medication when in reality you need to combine it with counseling or therapy to improve cognitive skills. In therapy you will learn a lot of coping mechanisms and techniques to remain functional and lead a close-to-normal life. You will also learn about emotions and how they can impact your condit...more

Dear user first of all why are you taking medicines, you didn’t mention here if you don’t want to take medication for life time then please wake up yourself, medicines are not a perfect solution for mental health, you have to work on your own, your will power, your mind and thoughts. You are too young. But due to certain reasons if you are on antidepressants you have to take some extra care of yourself. I donã¢â€â™t know what are the circumstances under which you are taking medicines, I want...more

There might be some limitations in schizophrenia depending on individuals. There are also people who function very well. Discuss your specific doubts with your treating psychiatrist. I am sure they will be able to help you. Good luck.

If the antipsychotic medicines are cause of increased prolactin then is it right to add more medicines? The new medicines will create more new issues.
Instead find a solution which can solve both the issues.
I suggest taking homoeopathic treatment.

Hi, I am nitin budhiraja, I am patient of schizophrenia. My doctor had prescribed me medicine amisulpride 200 & quetiapine 100 on 28 jan 2019. After that I reduced the quetiapine slowly & finally withdraw quetiapine. I was still taking amisulpride 200. Again I consult with my doctor on 16 april 2019. I told about the withdrawal quetiapine. My mental condition is very good on 16 april 2019. My doctor reduced my medicine he prescribed me amisulpride 100 or 150 on 16 april 2019. On 16th april I took amisulpride 100 on 17th april I took amisulpride 150 on 18th april I took amisulpride 150 on 19th april I am feeling less interest in work so I think this is because of reducing amisulpride from 200 mg to 150 mg so today I take back my previous dose of amisulpride that is 200 actually I do not want that I have less interest in work or daily activity. I am also taking himalaya mentat two times a day last question my doctor prescribed me aride sr & I am taking amisulpride generic. Both are same?

Dear lybrate-user,
You can take generic amisulpride instead of aride sr. I don't know anything about mentat. Please take an appropriate dose of amisulpride that is comfortable for your work and earning capacity. Please report it to your doctor when you visit next. Find out other reasons for less interest in work and daily activities and correct them.
