Some Illegal drugs which can cause Schizophrenia- cannabis(weed/ganja) , cocaine, crystal meth. Legal- Alcohol. You could read up journal articles on drug usage and schizophrenia or you could read up this book - Comprehensive Textbook of Psychiatry. It should help. Or you could save time and trouble by consulting a psychiatrist. By the way, your medicines are very good medicines so you shouldn't doubt them and have faith on your doctor.
