Hello,
You have not mentioned his age, as that would be help us for better analysis of his current situation. Although, regarding the mental and behavioral disorder the medicines he is taking currently have some adverse effects. Although the doctor has suggested those considering its more benefits for him and the adverse effects like dizziness and confusion are commonly observed.
These should fade away with time as body adapts to it. If this keeps on increasing, then I suggest consult your doctor regarding this. Depending on his overall condition the doctor might change the medicine or change the dosage if needed as he is well aware of your father's medical history. He might run some diagnostic tests for better understanding.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
