Thank you for sharing.
It seems like his illness is not controlled he might benefit with regular medication.
Kindly visit online for detail assessment and possible treatment options.
Thank you
Please take him to a psychiatrist or have an online session. Proper diagnosis can change his life for ever.
olepra is not the kind of medicine that is taken off and on. please ensure that your brother takes the prescribed medicine daily. if after taking it daily he is still not better in a week, please consult a psychiatrist for further evaluation
5mg is very minimum dose. The condition of your brother is not due to olepra, but its due to his condition. Contact any psychiatrist asap. If you cannot afford, let me know i will help you.
