Go see your doctor: Tell doc who prescribed your schizoaffective medication about your hallucinations. It's more likely that your hallucinations are a result of disorder & not due to medication. More importantly, rather than take one medication to stop side effect from another, stop playing dominoes & get best medication for you.
