HiThanks for using healthcare magicTermination of treatment in psychosis depends upon improvement of symptoms. In his case, if he stays asymptomatic for years, then, some one try to stop treatment, other wise, he has to take medications for long period. Your patient does not have insight about illness, in that case, better to give him treatment for years. Thanks
