Hi lybrate-user,
risdone mt 0.5 mg is sub-optimal dose even in geriatric population, to treat schizophrenia. The minimum effective dose is around 2 mg per day. So, please discuss with your psychiatrist to consider increasing dose of same.

Hi lybrate-user,
olanzapine is an antipsychotic medication used in illnesses like psychosis or schizophrenia. It is used in dose range of 5 to 30 mg per day. So, 15 mg per day can be considered a moderate dose.

It’s common to experience a change in mood occasionally or to go through a short period of feeling elated or blue. But if your behavior is unpredictable for a number of days or longer, it may be a sign of something more serious.
For example, you may:
be so excitable that you find yourself unable to control urges to spend money, confront people, or engage in other uncontrollable or risky behaviors
feel like you want to harm yourself or end your life
be unable to visit friends, get...more

Since you are feeling good with this prescription, you are advised to stay with this treatment. Homeopathy cannot treat severe mental disorders. Instead, I suggest you seek a counselor's help and work with that therapy in tandem with the medication. As you improve over time you can consider modifying the drug. In counseling, you will learn skills, techniques, and tools to handle schizophrenia and its complications. This can equip you for life. The emotional side of this condition particularly ne...more

Dear lybrate-user,
schizophrenia has both positive symptoms (hallucinations, delusions, disorganised thoughts) and negative symptoms (tiredness, lack of interest in any goal directed activity, lack of pleasure, restricted vocabulary, apathy, etc.) probably you would have become alright because of relief from positive symptoms. The negative symptoms also need treatment (amisulpride and aripiprazole). Please don't stop these medicines. Discuss with your psychiatrist. She/he may add an antidepr...more

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.

अकॉस्टिक न्यूरोमा या वेस्टिबुलर श्वानोमा एक बेनाइंग ट्यूमर है जो जो आपके आंतरिक कान को मस्तिष्क से जोड़ने वाली तंत्रिका पर विकसित होता है। यह आमतौर पर एक धीमी गति से बढ़ने वाला ट्यूमर है, हालांकि गैर-आक्रामक, और कैंसर वाला ट्यूमर पर है पर यह यदि यह नियंत्रण से बाहर हो जाए तो मस्तिष्क में विभिन्न संरचनाओं पर दबाव डाल सकता है। इससे सबसे अधिक सामान्य रूप से सुनना, शरीर का संतुलन और चेहरे के भाव प्रभावित होते हैं।

Hi,
based on the information provided by you, it appears that you have a mood disorder, probably bipolar disorder. Trazine is probably not the right medicine for you. It's in your best interest if you consult a nearby psychiatrist in-person & discuss about starting mood stabiliser which would be most appropriate medicine for you if the diagnosis of bipolar disorder is confirmed by him/her.

Hi, I understand your concern. This is a mere stress induced depression. First thing you need to do is please get an psychologist consultation and simultaneously psychiatrist consultation. It will take little long but you are sure to get out of it with determination. Past cannot be repaired and it should not reflect on your present and future. Make your mind a beautiful garden to new sprind n buds to bloom. Warm wishes.

If you are in good condition as you say, you are indeed fortunate. But you must consult a doctor before quitting this addiction. It is safe but the doctor may want to examine you thoroughly before recommending a proper manner for deaddiction. Otherwise, you may also visit a hospital for deaddiction over two weeks. If you have developed this habit because of other reasons that has precipitated this addiction, then you need to meet a counsellor in tandem. Your desire to want to quit itself will wo...more
