In reply to could risperdal make ADD worse too?, posted by babs on February 27, 2003, at 18:32:11
There are only a few mood drugs that
don't affect cogitive function in some way.
Risperdal affects serotonin ht2 receptors
which modulate allertness. It also modulates
dopamine and norepinephrine in certain ways.You can ajust cognitivly to these drugs,
but the extent of the adaption is based
on the dose, and your time on the drug.If the drug interferes with your cognitive
ability too much, talk to your doctor, there
may be alternatives.Linkadge
