Hi, it depends on the number of episodes, severity of symptoms, comorbidities etc. will need further history regarding the same to advise appropriately. Consult online for a second opinion. We can consider stopping the medicine if there is no risk.

This depends on the history of the patients. But bipolar is a chronic illness and therapy like IPSRT (Interpersonal social rhythm therapy) help the person learn how to manage there lifestyle so that further episodes can be avoided. If the chronicity of illness is long or if number of episodes were too many or if there is genetic history or if episodes were too severe then lifelong medications are prescribed. I provide online consultation and therapy support you can contact me directly on nine eight two six five four five six six zero for a detailed evaluation and management.
