How can auditory hallucinations be treated?
human
my 54 year old brother has recently started hearing voices that are threatening his well being. He has also began laughing out loud for no reason and displaying extreme paranoia. I have tried to get him to seek help but he refuses. He is also responding verbally to the voices. What can I do to seek help for him?

in  my  opinion  since  he  has    auditory  hallucinations   it  is  important   to  rule  out   electrolyte  disturbances  like  sodium ,  potassium  ,  also  to  make  sure  blood  sugars  are  normal  ,  blood  lipids,  ec  gthen  small dose  of  drugs  like  quinidine    can  be  started
