Does risperidone cause diabetes?
7 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
It can: All of the antipsychotic medications have been shown to cause diabetes to varying degrees. Risperdal carries a fair risk, but most people taking it never develop diabetes.

That is one : Potential side effect from risperidone. That doesn't mean it will happen, but rather that it could happen. Take care.
