Hi,
You have not mentioned the name of medicine which creating the doubt for the symptoms your husband has but it may not be the medicine can cause the symptoms, but it is the psychological disturbances. You can of course off the drug but he has to be watched carefully for the symptoms he has.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
