Risperidone

[phil06]

Anybody on this medication? I've been told I have to continue it for atleast another 4 months. My concern is by half ten I'm drowsy and tired worried about other side effects. I'm on 3mg a day..

Hi
I was put on this for a while. It was pretty good for anxiety but didn't help that much with sleep for me, so I was switched over to Quetiapine.

I'm worried about low sex drive and lack of bowel movements with this tablet. Anybody else had these issues?

It does affect libido, but for some that side effect passes with time. Unfortunately many psych meds have that as a common side effect.

I'm still tired on this medication. Anybody else feel tired when taking it?
