Can I Have Depression Medicines Like Sizodon Forte, Zapiz, Bexol Dt From A Past Prescription?

My brother is taking sizodon forte, zapiz .25, bexol dt. He is 35 years old. As our doctor prescribed he is in severe depression. He listens someone talking to him, telling him to run away, etc. He is in this condition from last 6-7 years. He started taking these medication from last 1.5 years. She tried giving him high dosage but she noticed some problems in moving his tongue when talking. Then she continued on normal dose. And my mother stopped this medication around 4-5 months back as he was totally normal. Now from last 20 days he again behaving depressed. So we again started the medication. Please help understanding the side effects. Are these medications harmful in long run.
