I was on the tablets.
As a woman, can i ask you how you find risperidone?
Why have they suggested you have an injection instead?
I had to change because it totally messed my system up. At 4mg i was lactating like i was heavilly pregnant, getting spots like a teenager, it stopped my periods and it felt like i had eternal PMS.
Apologies if i'm derailing your OP

A women friend is on rispiridone injections, as it's water soluble they need a large needle which she doesn't like, it's effecting her periods
I'm getting pissed off with this rispiridone because it's effecting our sex life, she's putting on weight
Beginning to regret calling the mental health team when she attacked me with a hammer
At the same time i think she needs something
