My Mom is currently on resperidol and still having delusions and anxiety. She is bipolar and had been lithium controlled for the last 20 or so years. Due to kidney damage they have taken her off of the lithium and this has lead to several hospitalizations and a lot of stuff she never did before. I have had negative experiences with resperidol being used with young psychotic children including tremendous weight gain and uncontrolable surges of irritability or anger. Not quite the mix we were hoping for. Hope someone knows something we don't because our family is getting worn out.
