> hey! There is a medicine that can be used when this happens...it helps with symptoms like you have, but I think there's still an increase in prolcatin. Personally, I can't stand risperdal. Of all the atypicals (excluding clozapine), it seems like the roughest. It raises prolactin levels, its been the cause of several lawsuits regarding tardvie dyskinesia, so on and so forth. If you **must** take an antipsychotic, I'd seriously suggest Abilify...or seroquel or geodon. Good luck!
Yeah, thanks. I think I'm going to stop taking it (well, I already have actually).... I'm already taking Seroquel and I like it except it makes me too tired and I can't get to a high enough dose to control my agitation. I've tried Abilify-- hated it, made me more agitated. Never tried Geodon.Just for curiosity's sake... what's the medicine that controls the lactation problems?
