A member asked:

What to do if i doubled meds (sertraline and risperidone)?

8 doctors weighed in across 2 answers

Depends: Dear Neilia6 - it depends on the reasons for taking those medications, the actual doses, and whether you are having any adverse reactions. Can you be more specific?

Depends: If this is a one time occurrence there is probably no harm. If you want to do this on a regular basis talk to your doctor about it.
