A member asked:
Off risperidone for 2 weeks, was dose 1mg but now appear to be suffering from what i call a 'cloudy head'. how long would withdrawal effects last?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Discuss w/ doctor: I hope your doctor guided your withdrawal slowly and monitored you during that time. In any case, that physician is the best person to help you deal w/ this residual effect. It's one of the most important aspects of medication treatment for psychological problems and part of high quality, appropriate practice. I hope it clears fairly soon and you can see progress toward clarity once you know signs
