In reply to Risperdal withdrawl??, posted by Fidget on August 26, 2005, at 7:54:20
> I have been taking Risperdal for 3 weeks I was on 2 mg but was weeping all the time. I cut myself down to 1mg and began experiencing stomach problems. I saw my psychitrist who then removed me from Risperdal. SInce then my stomach problems have worsened- i've got the runs, i'm hardly eating and my stomach feels like it's doing full time backflips. Ive also had a problem with my legs feeling like they are buzzing and needing to move. I have been prowling my house and running back and forth to the bathroom. I had to take Tylenol PM last night because i had not slept well in several days. My symptoms seem to be worsening instead of easing. I am now on day 4 with zero Risperdal and day 5 since i initially cut my dose.. will this get better soon? I dont have any Risperdal left - i flushed it, so taking a small dose of that to kill the symptoms is not an option... how long will this last? will it get better soon and do i need to call my doc or just tough this out?
I forgot to say all i am taking now is 10 mg Lexapro - could this be making things worse?my diagnosis is tenativly bipolar..
