A member asked:
Do the side effects of tiredness from a medication like risperidone increase only when i increase the dose or also when i decrease it?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
The increased tiredness from a medication like Resperidone will usually occur when you increase a dose and not when a dose is decreased. However, any dose changes should be made with the help and input of the prescriber to avoid any serious effects from changing the dose too rapidly (either increasing or decreasing). So, call your prescriber to discuss any dose changes. Best of luck to you!!
