How long does it take for risperdal to be effective against tourette's?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Soon: Risperidone has a fast onset of action for Tourette's, this means results are likely in anywhere from an hour to a few days. But there is the matter of the right dose, so it may require dose adjustment.
