Risperidone (Belivon^®, Rispen^®, Risperdal^® in the United States) is an atypical antipsychotic medication. It is most often used to treat delusional psychosis (including schizophrenia), but risperidone (like other atypical antipsychotics) is also used to treat some forms of bipolar disorder, psychotic depression and Tourette syndrome.

Generally lower doses are used for autistic spectrum disorders than are used for schizophrenia and other forms of psychosis; risperidone has received a not approved letter from the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for use in Autism.

Risperidone is now the most commonly prescribed antipsychotic medication in the United States.

@daffodil1979 Change risperidone 1mg -> 1-2mg as needed. Add hydroxyzine if possible. I already quit clonazepam, so hopefully no prob there.

Autism response to drug risperidone linked to genetic profile. Genes also predict drug side effects risk. http://ow.ly/LHRO

@caputdraconis Yeah, the Haldol and Risperidone just pissed me off and gave me lockjaw. I was pacing around the hospital giving hand signals

Medication-wise, here are my goals: lamotrigine 150mg or 200mg, hydroxyzine 100mg x 3, risperidone 1-2mg as needed, mirtazapine 60mg or 90mg
