Taking Amazeo OD And Sizodone For Having Paranoid Delusions. Concerned About The Dosage Change

Hi...I have been prescribed Amazeo OD 200mg by a doctor and i was having that medication since 2-3 years....Currently another doctor changed the medication from Amazeo OD 200 to Amazeo OD 100 and added a medicine Sizodone 1mg...Is that reduction of dosage or increase of dosage?I was having medication since 13 years from the age of 16....So I wanted to cure the problem and stop the medication..I was having paranoid delusions at the the age of 16-17...

Psychiatrist,  's  Response
hi..well, the second doctor seems to cross-taper between amazeo and sizodon as sizodon works better in positive symptoms like delusions and hallucinations if you are still experiencing them..amazeo is a good choice if you have progressive lethargy and cognitive decline, so called negative-symptoms..so the decision rests on your symptoms..and possibly you have paranoid symptoms for which you changed the doctor..stopping the medication in this case is difficult as its a chronic form of disorder..get blood tests for metabolic profile done periodically..have a good health..continue consultation
