He may be having disturbing symptoms which needs evaluation.But he needs a detailed evaluation because your description is too short to come to a conclusion. Certain  patients take 4 to 6 weeks to show improvement.

kindly consult your psychiatrist who maybe the better judge of the situation.

Respected Sir, I am sorry to hear about your friend's father's troubles and am touched by your concern for him. You may please remind him that both Doctors and Medicines are intended for improving the patient's health. If he finds the medicines intolerable, he should discuss the same with the "famous" psychiatrist and consider changing his medicines as per the doctor's advice.
