Asking For Self, Female 26, lahore
Kindly forward to psychiatrists. My sister is chronic ocd and schizophrenic patient taking zoloft 150mg,clozapine100mg, resperidone 2.5mg clomipril150mg for 5 years now. Some days she is depressed and avoid to meet people because of fear from people but sometimes she says she is not feeling depression and meet with people.she is also taking her thyroid tablet but i cannot understand if a patient gets normal he will be normal all time but if he does not get well his condition will be bad all time.i mean why there is no stablility why so fluctuation i have consulted so many expert psychiatrists. Kindly answer my query thanks
Dear sir, as patient is taking two types of Antidepressants and two types of antipsychotic medications and carrying two diagnoses, it is difficult to draw a conclusion here, she needs for diagnostic review and treatment review, for that she need expert opinion.Thanks
She is a chronic patient of psychaitry and thyroid issue (neither diagnosis nor treatment known ), my humble recommendation is to physical visit a psychiatrist and endocrinologist for proper diagnosis and treatment along following tests; medication history, CBC, T3, T4, TSH, Serum prolactin, blood sugar, lipid profile , uric acid urea and creatinine , LFT, ECG,
not unusual ,her Psychiatrist who started clozapine is probably the best person to answer your question

I will not speculate, without full history and relevant investigations not a good practice to share clinical conclusion. possibilities already answered by other respected colleagues
