A member asked:

Can risperdal cause arm pain in both arms? i had high prolactin during this time too because of risperdal.

A doctor has provided 1 answer

No: Risperdal does not cause limb pain, especially pain in both arms. Cause is different and would be wise to check the underlying etiology.

Lab tests were normal including LFT. Bilirubin was slightly elevated at 1.5. During the first blood draw, sample was hemolyzed. I got a large bruise across middle arm. I had to return the following day to repeat. Could the bruise cause the elevation?
