I've been on Risperdal for several years at varying dosages and I've found that .25 "rescue" doses when anxiety hits in the middle of the day in the place of Ativan or Klonopin has been EXTREMELY effective. Higher doses (4.5 mgs a day) was too much - flat affect, lost my sex drive, etc., but now I'm transitioning from a combo of Saprhis and low-dose Risperdal to Latuda (going great BTW) but I want to keep those magical little .25 Risperdal pills in my purse for safe keeping.
Hope it keeps working well for you, too!
