What is the best medicine for schizophrenia, bi-polar, ptsd combination?

Meds: There isn't any one best medication. I see your medications listed as paxil, (paroxetine) zoloft, wellbutrin & xanax. Are you taking Paxil (paroxetine) & zoloft simultaneously? It is unlikely that one single medication will be adequate (mono-therapy). However, an atypical antipsychotic may be a good choice. This class of medications is used for schizophrenia, often for bipolar disorder as well as dissociation >>.

Mental Illness: It is quite rare to have all three diagnosis, please consult with an experienced psychiatrist who can help you develop the best treatment plan possible, difficult to assess through email. My best.
