Can be an advantage: Risperidone may cause weight gain. Sticking to a healthy low calorie diet will certainly help minimize the weight gain. Along with adequate exercise, many are able to maintain their weight. Due to its stabilizing effects, in some individuals it may promote the choice for an active & healthy lifestyle and many have in fact lost weight & become physically healthier while on this medication.
