those are doses in the range of what is used to treat schizophrenia, schizoaffective disorder and Mania. Not working. she needs an antimanic med. psychiatrist should be treating her not a GP or internist, You are right to be concerned.

Is she on drugs like cocaine or amphetamine?

Does she have family? Will she go with you to an ER or a mental health clinic.she may need an hospital.

The drugs are not dangerous in these doses but they are not working and that is dangerous. Good luck!

You have no idea how relieved I am with your statement these drugs are not dangerous at these doses (however, I’m going to stop by a pharmacy right after I type this).

Thanks for suggesting a mental health clinic. Is that a psychiatrists office or is it something different? I’m not really up on all the medical jargon, I try to stay away from those people. I believe she will go with me if I insist. She’s very open to my concerns, unless it’s just an act, I guess we’ll see. But she has never been one to put on an act.

As far as I know she’s not on any drugs like cocaine, but am not 100% positive but pretty sure.

Thank you very much.
