You need to consult your treating Psychiatrist
Detailed Answer:
Hello
Thanks for query .
Based on the facts that you have posted you have been diagnosed and being treated for Schizophrenia by qualified Psychiatrist and facing sexual problems like loss of libido and Erectile Dysfunction (ED).
All these problems are due to side effects of anti Psychotic drugs .
You need to consult your treating Psychiatrist to modify treatment .However these issues are bound to be there as long as you will be taking these medications and have to accept reality .
If you have intense desire to have sexual life you may consult qualified Urologist to explore using Intra Cavernosal Injection ( To be injected in Penis) of Caverjet which will help to achieve hard erection to have a sex .But it limitations in using it only twice a week .
Normally we advise these injections in young married adults .
Hope I have answered your query ,please feel free to ask if you have more questions,I shall be happy to help you
Thanks and Regards.

I can not make any suggestions about modifying treatment
Detailed Answer:
Hello
Thanks for follow up .
As I have very little knowledge and experience about anti psychotic drugs I can not make any suggestions you have asked for regarding modifying taking these drugs .
Since side effects of these drugs last for long period stopping taking it for couple of days prior to having sex will not help at all .
Thanks and Regards.
Dr Patil.
