Topic: Schizophrenia



Expert: Davin
Date: 3/5/2008
Subject: refuse to take medicine

Question
My brother suffer from schizophrenia, but he refuse to take medicine, what shall I do

Answer
I think that no patient should be forced to take medication against their will. Instead you should explain to your brother the good reason why he should take the medication, and if the medication work, surely he will take it regularly without you need to force him.

The fact that he doensn't want to take medicine, may be he has his own reason, he is the one who take the medicine, surely he will know whether this medicine works for him, and probably you would like to watch a chinese movie the curse of the golden flower

Never ever force somebody to take a medicine. You don't want to take it yourself, don't you?
