Often patients discontinue treatment if they are not taken in confidence. Also the consulting mental health specialist will not be able to take history and follow up from himself but rely on family members only. So it's better to inform the patient and take help of the consulting mental health specialist for the same.

You mean your patient doesn't know about his illness and what kind of medication he is taking?
Please convey him his complaints and for what reason he is taking medicines. Because if he finds out it later there will be more chances of discontinuation of treatment.
Next Steps
If you are not able to convey it properly please seek advice from treating Psychiatrist.
