[QUOTE="Steely, post: 58929, member: 3301"] Well, I know a little bit, as my son was on it and all of it's cousin medications at differing times, but here is also a website that gives you some indepth details about the medication: [url="http://www.rxlist.com/cgi/generic/risperid.htm"]http://www.rxlist.com/cgi/generic/risperid.htm[/url] From my experience, it can be a wonderful medication if your child is really struggling with impulse issues, anger, or intense mood issues. Things to just be aware of - it can increase the child's appetite, cause weight gain, or make them sleepy. Also, it can, not always, but can raise cholesterol and glucose levels, so have your psychiatrist do routine bloodwork to keep an eye on that. Overall, it was a good medication for us, and helped my son regain some control of his mood issues at the time. [/QUOTE]
