He is not drinking. He has several professionals looking after him. Getting drugs right and dosages right is not an exact science, it can take a while and it can take trying several.

Once they get him stabilized they will probably fine tune it but the most important thing now is to get that stability so he doesn't sink further in to depression and relapse don't you think?

While I think it's important to know that Doctor's are not gods, it would be wise at this point to reassure him that they are doing their best and again, it is not an exact science. I am sure they are trying to help him.

I think if they only had him on one drug and not adding others at this point, when his depression is worsening both of you would be questioning why they aren't doing enough?
