Hi Sienna- I went up on the risperdal in .5 mg increments. That seemed to work well for me but you can go up even slower. I have no sedation on risperdal at all- I take half my dose in the am and half in the pm and it doesn't make me sleepy. It has worked REALLY well for me but I have gained 60 pounds which is a real bummer. I managed to lose 10 pds in the last few months but it hasn't been easy. Good luck and hope this helps! babs
