Hello thanks for asking from HCM for your health related queries

I can understand your concern. He is having obsessive compulsive disorder, irritability and these symptoms are persisting even with Invega or Paliperidone. But her symptoms like his belief that men are in bed, recurrent mood changes suggest some psychotic illness. If paliperiodne is not working then other anti-psychotics like Risperdione, Olazapine, Quetiapine etc can help to reduce his symptoms. Please discuss all these problems with him and then take him to a psychiatrist for re-evaluation and start giving him new medicines I have mentioned.

Hope this helps you. Thanks and Take care
