What are the side effect due to irregular consuption of medicine?
[|AI|]  Hi, I appreciate your caring towards your wife. Duration of use of the medicines will be told to you by the psychiatrist, and usually it is for 5 years after she is living without any psychotic problems. Stopping medicines before that increases chances of relapse of symptoms. Added will be risk of complications like aggression, suicide and so on. Taking irregularly leads to development of resistance to medicines and need to go for medicines with higher cost and/or side effects. Laws of certain countries ban giving medicines without patients knowledge. It is always better to take her to confidence. Discuss the problems she has taking medicines. If she has any side effects that can be tackled. If she has any apprehension that can be resolved. If she was problem taking tablets, She can opt for alternative methods like syrup or depot. With depot injections she can have injections once in 2-4 weeks and gradually her oral medicine can be stopped. So my advice is to decide on the path by considering her wishes too.
