This is from some literature I found:
"No, you do not necessarily need to take an antipsychotic alongside Cobenfy as Cobenfy itself is considered a new type of antipsychotic medication, meaning it can be used as a standalone treatment for schizophrenia, although doctors may choose to prescribe it alongside other antipsychotics depending on the individual's needs and response to treatment; always consult with your health care provider regarding the best treatment plan for you. "
