Hi
Yes, anti-psychotic can dry out your sinuses ... at least they do for me. I used a saline nasal spray and it helped.You are on a small dosage so it's possible for the effects to wear off quickly. When I was on it I had bad edema from it.
I'm glad it's helping you. :-)

> I think I notice a side effect from taking 0.5 mg of Risperdal nightly. At first I didn't think it was a side effect, but a quick Google search showed that it can be a side effect. When I'm going to sleep at night, I notice that I get a slightly stuffy nose. It's not completely closed off, but it is a bit annoying. When I wake up, the stuffy nose is gone. Anyone else experience this?
