Dear lybrate-user,
as I have already answered, schizophrenia needs long term maintenance dose of tablets. Relapses are worse to treat. You have not had any relapse since you were continuously on tablets. Your doctor is reducing the tablets, its dose and to less powerful tablets like aripiprazole. Let your doctor decide how long you will be on 15 mg. Since you don't have much side effect with aripiprazole, why don't you take it till the doctor decides the maintenance dose and tablet.

I think this is Drug induced hyperprolactemia as level is 200.
In pituitary adenoma level is usually more 500, so there is no need to do an MRI at present.
Gradually stop Sulpitac and shift on other antidepressants if needed by consulting any Psychiatrist directly or Online.
Repeat Prolactin level after 1 months.

These are good medicines. There is no fix duration but it is highly possible that you'll be cured within one year. I would also recommend relaxation exercises and therapy. That would be a great add-on to the medicines. No serious side effect if you stick to the dosage that has been prescribed to you.

Long term use of ssri and psychotropic drugs causes erectile dysfunction and loss of libido, instead of megalis 10 mg you must take ayurvedic or herbal treatment. Ayurvedic treatment will provide you complete solution for lesser libido, ed and also for anxiety. Consult an ayurvedic sexologist.
