[QUOTE="hearts and roses, post: 512205, member: 2211"] Risperdal helped A LOT with my difficult child during her early-mid teen years. However, long term use caused her breasts to lactate so we had to discontinue it. Prior to the risperdal she was in the chlonodine, which was also helpful but because she already had low blood pressure, she would often get dizzy and was tired a lot...turns out she's a sleeper anyway. I see no harm in trying one over another, just be certain to do it under the doctors close watch and give it more than three days. I'd say at least three-four weeks should give you a better picture as to whether or not it's the right medication for her. After the two week mark, most of the initial side effects pass and you get a better idea of how effective (or not) the medication is. Good luck! [/QUOTE]
