Risperidone

Risperidone is a medication commonly used to treat mental health conditions such as schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, and irritability associated with autism. It works by balancing certain chemicals in the brain (neurotransmitters), which helps reduce symptoms like hallucinations, delusions, mood swings, and agitation. Risperidone can be taken as a tablet or liquid, and it’s important to follow the healthcare provider’s instructions. Like all medications, it may have side effects, so regular monitoring by a healthcare professional is essential. It helps improve daily functioning and quality of life for many individuals with these conditions.
