No. If you are maintained on the medicine, please don't think about changing it.
Paracetamol is also an old tablet but it is still the most commonly used medicine for treating fever.
It is true that there are newer medicines being discovered/invented every few years but if you're fine with the medicines that you're taking then you should stick with it.
Next Steps
discuss your dilemma with your treating psychiatrist or feel free to chat online
