[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Risperdal is also used for kids with autism...I imagine you'd prescribe it based on symptoms though. My kid went on it recently, tiny dose, and we've seen significant reductions in irritability and aggression. This is on top of an adhd drug. We had previously tried Intuniv and I think it actually made the aggression worse[/quote] Risperdal can be effective but also has serious side effects. We tried for my DD and it calmed her down, but she experienced terrible side effects. We eventually got her under control with an antidepressant, but we had try several before we found one that worked.[/quote]
