I have taken Risperdone for several years and have found it to be very effective. I take 0.50mg of Risperdone in the evening to assist with my sleep and to improve my thought process during the day.

Your doctor will say you are crazy if you ask for it, but it gave my mother 46 years of pain free life. In the early 1970's some clinic or doctor discovered this side effect of the drug, but as pharmacist I have seen very few who know about it. It will start working from the very first dose if it is going to help you. Advice from an old pharmacist who discovered this in 1957. Read More Read Less

First drug that effectively treated my labile and paroxysmal hypertension. Smoother than clonidine, inexpensive, with few side effects. Not popular with doc's. Use with diuretic because of water retention.
