In any mental illness abruptly stopping medication is not recommended, slowly tapping is the choice and that too over the course of 1-2 years , kindly book a psychiatric consultation for proper treatment plan and try remain compliant on medications prescribed if you are not satisfied with a psychiatrist you can always switch the psychiatrist but changing medicine by yourself/ as non medical professional is detrimental to mental health.

There can be many reasons why she is not showing a stable recovery. Is she on all medication u mentioned or only citanew ? It needs a good detailed discussion and then help. Is she willing to get therapy ? I can help u and talk to her also if i like to book an online appointment with me. Best wishes
there is no permanent cure of schizophrenia. And in schizophrenia ocd anxiety are common factor.. let me tell more things about her for example is she talk with herself ? does she see imaginary people and talk with them? does she ever complaint of any kind of noise from brain ?
