A member asked:
I tapered off and stopped risperdal. other med is working as mood stabilizer. amenorrhea since starting on risp. period has lasted 2 weeks+ seek help?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Can happen: Risperdal can stimulate prolactin secretion (from the pituitary gland in the brain) to high levels in some patients. If this was your case, it may take a month or more after discontinuation for your hormones to balance and cycles to regulate. Your other meds may impact as well. If bleeding continues, please see your doctor.
