Bipolar disorder usually requires long-term treatment to prevent relapse. While some patients can be maintained on lower doses over time if they remain stable, this is decided cautiously by the psychiatrist. Stopping or reducing medication too early can increase the risk of recurrence. If affordability is an issue, government setups can be a good option for low-cost or free treatment.
