Increased Risperdal Increased tiredness

Posted by agencypanic on March 12, 2003, at 16:42:26

I just had my dosage of Risperdal increased from 1mg twice /day to 2mg twice/day and am definitely
noticing that I'm far more tired than before. I only started the new regimen yesterday and am wondering if over
time my body will adjust and begin to accept this level as tolerable. Any thoughts from anyone are appreciated.

I should also mention that I increased the amount of lexapro I'm taking from 10mg to 20mg daily.

I have taken Risperdal in the past. I think the sleepiness should go away after awhile. It might take a week or two to get used to the new dose.
