please tell me for what it use ## my doctor refuse to tell me what desise that Ihave and prescriped Respridal for me ## I believe the medication you are all talking about is called Risperdal - you can check out the drug info page for more details.

Typically it is used to treat psychological conditions, but you should always know what it was prescribed for. Wish you the best with that! Roy

Is it safe to mix metadate, ritalin and respridal? My sons dr. had him on all three at once and he was like a zombie, so I stopped guving them to him. ## Have you consulted his doctor?

It is a very potent antipsychotic and is well known to cause extreme sedation in some people, especially at higher dosages. What dose was he on? ## He was on 3mg of respridal. He gained an extreme amount of weight and even developed breast, which I thought were a result of the weight gain. After he was off the respridal he lost the weight but he still has breast tissue, even after exercise nothing changed.

I am just curios to know why respridal's side effects are very similar to Anabolic steroids. I know it is an anti depressant but I've noticed it causes weight gain and some people show symtoms of "rage". Can someone please answer this question? ## It's primarily because they can both have an effect on the chemicals in our brain. These types of side effects, among others, are normal for any medication that affects the chemicals in the brain, including antidepressants and Benzodiazepines. Not everyone experiences them, but it is always a possibility. Is there anything else I can help you with?
