[QUOTE="smallworld, post: 187458, member: 2423"] Because Risperdal comes in a melt-tab, my understanding is that it is frequently used PRN in response to a rage. In other words, once the child is raging, the melt-tab is slipped into his mouth to stop the rage. If he's reeling himself in on his own, I don't see the need for a PRN medication at that time. I could see using a PRN medication the week before school if a child is extremely anxious about starting school again. And if a child can't get to sleep, I absolutely think there needs to be intervention. Sleep hygiene is very important to mood regulation. If you are unsure about how you should use Risperdal with your difficult child, you should check in with the prescribing doctor. Sorry -- I don't know anything about stretch marks. [/QUOTE]
