Dear lybrate-user, many medicines in psychiatry are prescribed for different indications. For e.g. Soltus, in different dosages is used for both depression as well as psychotic illnesses and other indications. D venizep I used for depression and several types of anxiety disorders. I would advise against discontinuing any medicine on your own, especially when your mother is maintaining well. I suggest that you have an open discussion with her doctor about your concerns and then take a decision. Best wishes.

Hello, covid vaccination has immense benefits and schizophrenia is not a contraindication go ahead as soon as possible.

Depends whether it was a sustained relelase / extended release preparation or plain one. If it was an extended/sustained release preparation then it will lose its effectiveness as long term preparation by crushing it. So not recommended. (qutan sr) if it is a plain or immediate release preparation, yes you can crush it.

Hi lybrate-user it's not an illicit drug which you are taking, I believe you have a valid prescription for same. I wonder why would anybody take fluoxetine and fluvoxamine silultaneously as they both are of same class and work in same way, so why do not you take only one at an appropriate dose. Regarding convincing your family member, you need to express it explicitly what you have actually gone through and how this treatment has helped you, and ask them if they also want to see you happy or want you to suffer or stay distressed due to illness, along with it you should ask them to accompany you while going for followup with your psychiatrist. They might get annoyed or distressed initially and you have to anticipate it but keep putting your efforts persisitently till they understand or agrees to accompany you. I wish you stay happy and healthy!

Dear lybrate-user, the tablet you are using is used for bipolar disorder and must have been prescribed by a psychiatrist, it will be ok to meet your doctor again and confirm the requirement. Do not change or stop the medicine on your own.
