Since you are already on medication I suggest you talk to your treating Psychiatrist and convey your current symptoms to them. It is possible that some changes in medication dosages will help improve the symptoms.

Dear Sir If you are feeling fine with the medications and do not hand any side effect, it is OK to take them. A lot of people with schizophrenia respond to more than one antipsychoyics and are on multiple medication. Please do not stop or alter the medication without consulting your psychiatrist.
