Jeroen, there's only so many times I can say that you have to do these things with your doctor. I'm concerned about these forays because you'll never know what is actually working.
If god forbid, I ever converted to TD from Seroquel EPS (TD is on a sliding scale from EPS indeed, although not a perfect science by any means), my doctor would do a baseline AIMS exam and then monitor progress on whatever strategy we chose, like Vitamin E, or Tetrabenazine (a bit of a last resort), and then do another AIMS to see if anything actually worked.
Throwing random OTC substances and expecting to see a sign without being monitored is setting yourself for disappointment and also danger, because you're not using them at levels that you and your doctor agree with.
