Dear sir,
Drugs used for schizophrenia have different doses and not one suit fits all. The treatment is always tailor-made to suit a patient's need.
For a patient not taking medicines, we have following options:
1. Giving medicines under direct supervision
2. Once to twice a month depot drug injections that keep releasing the drug gradually
3. Admit the patient to a mental health facility where they administer drugs orally or inject them until patient takes the drug by mouth
4. Covert medication- mixed with food etc. (Not recommended unless everything else fails, unethical according to some schools of thought!)
Pls feel free to contact me for private consultation.
Regards!
