hi..its paranoid schizophrenia..consult your psychiatrist for any change of medication needed or switching to a different agent..that will definitely help you..the neurochemical imbalance is responsible for this disorder..don't get panicky..consult urgently again,,have a good health
Arip MT contains aripiprazole which is an antipsychotic drug used in schizophrenia and other psychoses, so continue taking this drug. As per your description, you are still experiencing delusions & hallucinations. So, i advise you to consult your psychiatrist for readjustment of the dose as there is a need to increase the dose.
Hope it helps
Good Luck
Thanks
