I'm really worried about my mom. She's been on medication for schizophrenia for the last two months. Initially, she was taking 1 Trinicalm Plus and 1 Topirol 50 in the morning, and 1 Trinicalm Plus at night. They upped her dose after two weeks to 1 Trinicalm Plus and 1 Topirol 50 in the morning, and 2 Trinicalm Pluses at night. Now they're saying she needs 2 Trinicalm Pluses and 1 Topirol 50 in the morning, and 2 Trinicalm Pluses with 1 Topirol 50 at night. I'm concerned because she's also dealing with obesity and high blood pressure. Does this sound okay to you?
