Hi...Did doctor gave you any diagnosis? Is it Schizophrenia? If yes, then the medication is fine. Audio Hallucinations are very common in Schizophrenia. Sleepiness is one of the side effects of this medication. Actually this medication restores the chemical imbalance in the brain, to address the disorder of thought, emotion, and behaviour which is altered by the illness. Try visiting another Psychiatrist for second opinion. Dr Naveen Jayaram is a good Psychiatrist in Bangalore. You can search him on Google and Practo.

Health Tips
In cases of schizophrenia or other psychotic disorders, medication plays a vital role but counselling/psychotherapy is also very important to help the patient understand his/her condition and treatment.

Hi
I appreciate that you reach out for your concern
The information you provided...I'm finding she is having audio hallucinations- a mental disorder
It happens due to chemical imbalance in the mind which creates distortion of thoughts
When BP or Diabetes occur we take medicine for life because body is not making that chemical...we don't think much of side effect as atleast next 30 years the person has Quality lifel
Same happens with mental disorder
I can understand after medication her thoughts are ok...she behaves normal....only concern is dull.....it's much more better than those auditory hallucinations condition
Hope I resolved your query
Next Steps
u can take an online session with me for psychoeducation
