Guest guest Posted October 5, 2011 Report Share Posted October 5, 2011 Worked pretty well for a year. Then - don't know, stopped working, and increasing the dose didn't increase the efficacy. We've now stopped it as it just stopped working. However, for a year or so, really helped weight gain which we needed. So, as a side effect for a skinny boy, worth a try. BUT it really doesn't suit everyone x > > trying to be objective here, but not excited about posting. our consultant is recommending a trial of risperidone with eddie (age 12 now). > > anyone using it or had good/bad experiences to post? > > cheers > > karenza > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted October 8, 2011 Report Share Posted October 8, 2011 i've decided to explore other things first, haven't received particularly positive feedback about it, but am still open to hearing more experiences. > > thank you all for your feedback on and off list, appreciated! > > Hope its helped you decide whether to try risperidone. > > -- > is > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
