28 Dec 2011 Risperdal works well in the beginning when taken with a stimulant for ADHD. However while multiple disorders added such as autism, it seems to make agression worse by bringing the stimulant down too much.

16 Nov 2010 Made me very lethargic and sleepy. Wake up with drool all over the pillow. No mental effects whatsoever, still experiencing the same issues.

05 Oct 2010 My advice is to stay away from this drug. It can have adverse side effects and some of the psychiatrists will abuse their position of authority and ignore, minimise and misdiagnose your side effects because they can be extremely ignorant, arrogant and blind to the reality of the situation and call you deluded because of your mental illness when it suits them and not see the reality of the situation at all. It can be abused by the medical profession and the side effects can be extremely negative and long lasting. It robbed me of a lot of youth. Psychiatrists need to be held accountable for misuse of theses drugs.

21 Jan 2012 Nola, I can relate. Can we connect? I'd like to share experiences and see if they'll help either one of us. (Please let me know how to reach you.)

05 Oct 2010 I went to drugs dot com and found out that I was allergic to Risperdal because I had many of the SEVERE side-effects that required immediate medical treatment and my shrinks made me take Risperdal for 10 plus years, and the shrinks didn't even have the sense to ask me if I had any of the SEVERE side-effects. The shrink thought that the one and only SEVERE allergic reaction to Risperdal was a runny nose which drugs dot com said was one of the common side-effects of Risperdal.
