Can I Switch To Homeopathic Medicine From Olimet For Schizophrenia?

I am 31 yrs old married man with one daughter. From the age of 18, I have been asked to consume medicines as I was suffering from schizophrenia.

Today even it is suggested by my doctor to consume Olimelt 5 mg one tablet along with Soltus 50 one tablest every night. I have consulted another homeopathic medicine from last three years but still I have to take half of the quantitity of tablets everyday to get sound sleep. Could u please advice what should I do to discontinue those tablets since I am normal.

Hi
Schizophrenia is a serious psychiatric disorder. I do know that like many physical diseases say diabetes BP etc schizophrenia also need continue treatment for long time to remain disease free .I would have advised my patient not to stop drug and not to change the system of treatment if this system is giving benefit

Take care
