[QUOTE="smallworld, post: 378791, member: 2423"] Risperdal can be used as a PRN (as needed) medication, and it in fact comes in a melt-tab form for that purpose. However, my experience is that these medications are more effective over the long haul when they are used everyday and have a chance to build up to a steady state in the blood stream. The child doesn't have to go through ups and downs in spikes of medication doses and actually feels better day to day. by the way, Risperdal is FDA-approved for the treatment of irritability associated with autism (Pervasive Developmental Disorder (PDD)).
