I am not sure why you have been prescribed 2 antipsychotics at low doses. I hope your Psychiatrist had a good reason to do so. In any case, do not stop medication without consulting your Psychiatrist. Discuss with him/her that you're not having optimum relief. There may be some adjustment of the dose needed.
Next Steps
consult your Psychiatrist

Hello. I think one antipsychotic drug would be enough, which can be increased gradually upto optimum dose.
Kindly discuss with any of the psychiatrist for further assessment.
