Psychiatric medicines take longer duration to show the desired effect. They may take from 15 days to 2-3 months to get the right concentration in the blood. Kindly do not stop or alter medication yourself without asking your psychiatrist.

You need to combine medication with therapy to get the maximum benefits of both. Although this is a long term disease, and you will probably remain for long on medication you must still persevere. 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 counselings or therapy. In therapy you will le...more

If a person is taking risdone plus zapodil for schizophrenia treatment, she can not stop the medicine for life. She can only change the medicine or the dose of medicine depending on the benefit and side effects. If she is taking it for any other illness, please write all the details of it. If she is planning to have a child, let her talk to her doctor.

Dear Swapna,
If Sulpitac 100 mg alone is able to maintain your improvement, you can stop risdone ls by taking risdone 1 mg for 2 weeks and stop. But i doubt it. Your positive symptoms like hallucinations and delusions may come up if you stop risdone l s.

Risdone can cause weight gain at high doses. Improve your lifestyle- diet, exercise. If you still feel that weight is going up, get lipid panel, fasting sugar and hba1c checked.

I am suffering from schizophrenia since last 7 years, I have went for many doctors since last 5 years only psychiatrists they delivered me different sets of medicines but the medicine. I have been relieved is risperidone+trihexyphenidyl hcl tablets both came under the name risdone plus (2 mg) and amisulpride 100 mg. But due to my bad habits of discontinuation of taking medicines on later the auditory hallucination keep on arising at later time, (1) can you tell me how much time will it take to completely relieved from this schizophrenia? And the sedation effect let me have a heaviness and concussions in the morning which is why my brain functioning gets slowed down to almost zero. (2) is there any other medicines to cure schizophrenia without sedation effects as I have to work also from time to time and been taking medicines for only once a day.

More than 1 year of schizophrenic illness is called chronic schizophrenia and most likely requires life long medications. Kindly get this into your mind. It is like diabetes or hypertension, a derangement in bodily metabolism, so medications needs to be taken without break for reaching near normalcy in functioning. Taking medicines regularly will lead to poor symptom (mainly hallucinations and delusions) control, long term negative and cognitive symptoms and also residual symptoms which cannot b...more
