There have been some pretty encouraging trials of risperidone as an add on to antidepressant therapy in cases where an antidepressant alone hasnt worked - the blockade of 5HT2a, HT2c and HT7 receptors is the presumed mechanism of actuion at these doseages (0.5-1.5mg/day, avg 1mg)
It has also been shown to be a usefull adjunct to SSRI's in panic disorder, generalised anxiety and OCD
I personaly have found it very helpful.
