You should not stop your Medication without consulting your doctor first.
And the medication can be reduced over time, and there is a possibility that only one or two Medicine will go long term and this won't cause any financial burden on you.

Since you have had multiple relapses you should not leave medicine on your own.
Honestly these medicines will continue for a substantial period of time.
If there are no side effect then we can continue just one medicine.
That medicine is not costly to lay burden on you.
