Hi,
Thank you for posting your question here, I will try to answer it to the best of my abilities.

Yes, if and when the person misses their medication they will start behaving in ways that they normally dont when on the medication. As such please try and make sure the patient doesnt miss their daily medication.

I hope this helped.
