Schizophrenia

Can someone with Schizophrenia still become a pilot even if they are taking their meds and getting their regular shots?

This is a question only an AME (Aviation Medical Examiner) can answer. There are simply too many variables. Inevitably someone may chime in and say they “know a guy” who could or could not but again one person’s case could be very different than yours.

You should contact an AME in your area for a consult.
