Hello and welcome to Lybrate. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice. Sizodon 0.5 mg tablet belongs to the drug group known as atypical antipsychotic, used in the treatment of psychotic disorders. This medication can treat schizophrenia and manic depression, both symptoms of bipolar disorder. It is also used for treating irritability symptoms in children suffering from autism.
I suggest telephonic counseling for you.

I don't think sizodon has any impact on our immune system. There is some confusion about the medications by pediatrician. You could continue medications without doubt and there could be other reasons for kids i'll health which needs evaluation. I would suggest you to take a second opinion about fever and other health issues. If at all you have to discontinue sizodon. You can stop it gradually by making it 0.25 ml for a week or so and then stop.

Hi lybrate-user. Lung cancer does not carry a good prognosis. Your father in lawhas stage 4 disease which has been treated with chemotherapy and targeted therapy. If your father in law has developed respiratory problems even after osimertinib, it means that the disease is in progression. He should undergo imaging with ct scan of chest to assess the disease extent.

Dear Ashok,
It is difficult to live with dementia. For you it is difficult to see her without talking or overtalking. At the age of 81 years most of her systems work less efficiently. You have to learn to use trial and error method to adjust drugs's dose.
For the time being, please continue Donamem. Try and stop Sizodon. Manage her with trika. If she is hyper, give her again Sizodon 0.5 mg once a day, probably at night when you don't want her to be hyper.
Please check any other medic...more

Risperidone is the right medication if it was psychosis. It controls symptoms of psychosis and helps with sleep etc. If you think you have improved and feeling benefits continue with it but it has to be monitored by the psychiatrist regularly for any side effects. So it is good for you if the original diagnosis was right and the side effects always has to be balanced with benefits of taking it.

It appears he is suffering from dementia. Adjusting his sizodon dose and managing his dementia may improve his symptoms. His forgetfulness may be the reason for his talk about theft of his items. Though there may not be complete cure for dementia, the symptoms can be minimized.

The medications are fine, but your hallucinations are not controlled. So you need a revision of prescription, consult your psychiatrist. He will be able to help u. If all 4 years the symptoms have not remitted, with adequate dosage, there are medications for resistant hallucinations. All the best.

I am sure the doctor is not a psychiatrist, kindly get your son's ADHD evaluated in detail, ADHD needs to be confirmed by psychological and psychiatric evaluation and sizodon is not the drug to be used. It needs to be treated with special group of medications. Also sizodon starts from 0.5 mg to 4 mg tablet and can cause serious side effects when dosing is not done by experts, so kindly consult a nearby psychiatrist who evaluates child as well. All the best.
