Subject: s/l blunted acid (psychiatric)

MENTAL STATUS EXAM:  This is a 39-year-old white male who is alert; oriented to person, place, and partially to date; cooperative; somewhat restless; with blunted s/l acid; normal speech; thought precesses goal-directed; thought contents significant for paranoid delusions of visual hallucinations; insight and judgement poor; cognition not assessed.  Could this be blunted affect or something else?  Thanks!

I am working on a psychiatric progress note and he says ... "Our plan at this time is to increase the ~foquan or zoquan~ to 20 milligrams a day"  This doesn't sound familiar to me and didn't know if it may be new or if someone can offer any help.  Thanks in advance.
