Can you take 20mg of olanzapine alongside 2mg of risperidone

Im self medicating. I was prescribed 2mg of risperidone but it is giving me no peace. I have decided to just take 20mg of olanzapine along with 2mg of risperidone. Is that safe? I have not consulted a doctor.

Please discuss this with your doctor.
Taking Risperidone with Olanzapine is pretty common - they mix rather well.
risperidone is a - done antipsychotic and olanzapine is a -pine antipsychotic - dones and pines mix rather nicely usually.
Another common combo is mixing risperidone with quetiapine.

Discuss with your pdoc on the dosing - I wanted to add some olanzapine to my Risperdal myself at one point

I take Zyprexa + Risperdal but the doses are lower. You should ask your Dr.

Olanzapine is anti chlorogenic - a little bad for memory. I used to take olanzapine 20 mg every night and 2 mg resperidone early morning and then I changed it to 20 mg olanzapine and 4 mg resperidone morning… And then I gained weight because of olanzapine. I stopped taking meds and took niacin 5 grams everyday and there was no anger but psychosis was a little more and couldn’t sleep… for seven days I didn’t take any anti psychotic and niacin alone means no anger but couldn’t sleep for seven days/nights at-most I could only sleep for a couple of hours and was troubled by psychosis and then I started taking 10 mg olanzapine and I was kicking empty air the 8th day and was having mood swings when troubled by parents, my father kept nagging me about job money etc I was cursing my father because I personally felt he was acting like a complete idiot. My Father is a doctor - eye specialist and my elder sister is a doctor - dentist and they never gathered info on schizophrenia. I know that our prefrontal cortex and temporal lobes don’t work properly and thus we have poor memory. Few days ago I visited the all new schizophrenia.com website and I realized I don’t have money and the vitamins they posted-researched… Before any one telling me about B6 I read many months ago that it is useful and after I used B6 I felt awesome.

I don’t have money for all these.

Now I’m happy with a better brain… what do I take?

Olanzapine 20mg every night ---- after taking this drug I want to eat more so I decided I will say no to more food and only eat less food and I no longer gain weight

B3 niacin 4.5 grams everyday 1.5 grams 3 times ---- niacin doesn’t give me flush why because I use magnesium

Magnesium 400 mg morning 400 mg night

B6 ---- 100 mg maximum everyday — don’t take more than 100 mg

B9 folic acid 5 mg

B12 1500 mcg

c vitamin 1 gram morning 1 gram night

D3 vitamin 5000 IU one capsule everyday

I don’t have money for Omega 3 fatty acids

When I took large doses of omega 3 I felt as if I gained presence of mind

I don’t have money to buy everything.
