Psychiatrist,  's  Response
Hello thanks for asking

Your son of 22 years have complaints of violent abusive behaviour, not following commands, demandingness, poor performance in studies, hitting family members. He is currently on Risperidone 4 mg, Sodium valproate 1000, Haloperidol 10, Paradise 12.5 per day. He is not getting much relief and there is only 40% improvement. He is still demanding big games and mobiles. As per my opinion he is suffering from bipolar disorder with manic episode or second possibility is Conduct disorder. He is on right medicines but the relief is less. Consult his psychiatrist again for reevaluation. Other option is electro convulsive therapy. This treatment is usually reserved for resistant cases. You can discuss with his doctor for ECT. The therapy is given weekly or every 2 weeks interval and it has good results as compared to medicines.

Thanks, hope this helps you.
