Dear
I understand that schiziphrenia can be a challenging situation for the patient and especially for the caretakers. It is understandable to feel anxious about your mother's medication and treatment, but it is important to remember that with proper management and support, individuals with schizophrenics can lead fulfilling and meaningful lives.

Following head injury, behavioral changes or changes in personality are quite common. She seems to be having some psychotic symptoms. Please take her to a neuropsychiatrist immediately. with the right medication it is likely her symptoms will improve. Given her significant medical and surgical history, it is recommended that she is assessed in person rather than taking advice online.

Hello, thanks for the query. Syndopa as a medication causes drowsiness in initial few days but I can assure you that the drowsiness wears off over a period of few weeks; so keep patience. Also benefits of syndopa shall become evident over next few days in form of decreased stiffness in limbs.
