On Oleanz, Irregular Intake. Will Schizophrenia Be Treated While Living With Husband?

Hi my sister is a psychiatry patient and she is on OLEANZ 10 mg (taking irregularly) from past 2 yrs. I feel she is normal and fine if she is with her husband but i feel some wat different if she is not along with her husband i mean if she is staying with me and mom. Do you think staying along with her husband will definately cure her disease (schizophernia).? Please reply Thanks As

Hi,

Welcome to HealthcareMagic Public Forum

First her treatment is good. Schizophrenia respond well to medicine but it is not treatable by simple life style modification. This illness is not curable but controllable with medicines in most of the cases.

Apart from that symptom severity may change according to stress level, nature of psychopathology, treatment compliance and change in medicine. This may be one of the reason for change in her symptoms in different circumstances.

I hope this information has been both informative and helpful for you.
Wish you Good Health.

Regards,
