Of course, medications cannot cure it. They can, however, raise or lower the threshold for switching (to another personality). Alcohol and benzodiazepines lower it, and I believe anti-manic (including antipsychotics) agents raise it, but I'm not sure, because how can I know how many switches I would have had without these medications?
