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.

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.

There is no doubt that this disease is debilitating but you must persevere not only with the medication but also with counseling. The counseling gives you an avenue to work with your emotional issues and you will develop skil...more

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.
