The medications you mentioned are for psychosis, most probably schizophrenia when the duration is 10 years. At times people feel, medications are not helping, always decide based on your subjective experience as well as what people around you feel, when you are on medications and when not on them.

They are good medications, but need to be cautiously used in combination considering the drug interactions. I am sure your your treating psychiatrist would have considered the same, while prescribing. So you need to attend review as told by him/ her and express if there is any disco for with them. Good luck Mr. Jayanth.

Dear lybrate-user,
Trinicalm forte belongs to older first generation antipsychotic. You can replace it with newer second generation antipsychotic like Amisulpride. But the dosage of amisulpride needs to be fixed, depending on your improvement and side effects.
Discuss with your psychiatrist about it. May be, she/he is in the process of shifting you from trinicalm forte to amisulpride.

Good ​afternoon,
Although there is no simple answer to your question, weighing the benefits that are way more than the long-term​ side effects of the medication, it might be best for your father to be on the medication rather than go off of it.
Look forward to hearing from you. If you need help with booking an appointment online with me on this website either text, audio or video appointment for a confidential and private consultation you may do so by contacting the help desk of Lybrate.

Dear Lybrate user. I can understand. Recent reports have raised the concern that clozapine increases the risk for diabetes mellitus. Accurate pharmacoepidemiologic data on whether such a hazard exists and its magnitude are needed to enable clinicians and patients to make proper treatment decisions about clozapine. I suggest you to consult your psychiatrist for more clear insight. Take care.

Dear lybrate-user,
They are all tablets to treat schizophrenia. But the dose depends on how much your wife improved and what kind of side effect she is having. Weight gain, sleep improvement, shakiness, salivation, stiffness, etc needs to be assessed periodically to change or alter the dose of these tablets. There are long term side effect of sizodon like prolactin elevation, metabolic syndrome, etc. These things also needs to be weighed against improvement in the follow up with the psychiat...more
