I am a patient of schizophrenia. I am taking Sulpitac 300 once daily since last 8 years. I am doing fine & don't have any significant problem now related to the disease. But I feel little restlessness always since the very beginning. Now when I am living a smooth life, I can feel that this restlessness is not normal. Can you please suggest something? Whether I need to take alternative medicine or anything else. Thanks in advance. My age is 39.

The restlessness that you are talking about, if started soon after taking medicine, can be due to medicine also knows as drug induced akathesia, this is a minor side effect of drug. But that does not mean you will stop or change medications. As from your history it seems that medicine has been very helpful and has been able to control your illness. You can consult your doctor who can add some beta blockers or anxiolytic for this restless.
