Can risperidone cause weight gain?
Unfortunately,
every antipsychotic on the market can cause weight gain. There is no way around
it. However, risperidone is relatively safe but you must lower your calorie
intake and exercise if you want to avoid weight gain. I will also mention that
risperidone was one of the drugs where the manufacturers lied about its adverse
effects. In addition, the FDA sued the crap out of Johnson and Johnson for
lying.
Unfortunately, deceit is a universal theme with most pharmaceutical
companies and the doctors who work for them. One never knows the truth about
the drug data.
