Hello,
The question appears to be incomplete but still I think you want to ask if this illness can be cured and what to do in case of relapse.
When one drug had been effective in controlling the symptoms initially, then in case the symptoms reemerge on stopping the drug- it is recommeded to strat with a low dose of the previous medicine.
Secondly, psychiatric illnesses are consedered to be treatable and not curable- like diabetes or hypertension. Only infectious diseases are consedered to be curable
So, it may happen that symptom reappear after drug is stopped.
Good luck.
