Psychiatrist 's  Response
Hi
Thanks for using healthcare magic

Sometime, due to underline organic brain dysfunction, number of patients get hallucination or other psychotic symptoms. In that case, he needs low dose antipsychotic like quetiapine. Better to consult a psychiatrist and get him properly evaluated. Drug should be atypical antipsychotic that has less effect on dopamine level and would not effect on parkinson treatment.

Thanks
