Buy cheap Risperdal

Risperdal (Risperidone) is an atypical antipsychotic medication. It was approved by the United States Food and Drug Administration for the treatment of schizophrenia.

Common side effects include akathisia, anxiety, insomnia, low blood pressure, muscle stiffness, muscle pain, sedation, tremors, increased salivation, and stuffy nose. Risperdal (Risperidone) has been associated with minimal to moderate weight gain, with one study finding that 26 to 38 percent of participants on the drug experienced weight gain. It has also been known to cause sexual dysfunction such as retrograde ejaculation.

Occasionally breast tenderness and eventually lactation in both genders may occur. Many antipsychotics are known to increase prolactin because they inhibit dopamine. However, Risperdal (Risperidone) is known to increase prolactin to a greater extent than most other antipsychotics, such as quetiapine. It is thought that once Risperdal (Risperidone) raises prolactin, it may cause non-cancerous tumors in the pituitary gland. This may recur even if the patient has switched to a different antipsychotic.

Risperdal (Risperidone) can potentially cause tardive dyskinesia (TD), extrapyramidal symptoms (EPS), and neuroleptic malignant syndrome (NMS), although the risk is generally less than for the older typical antipsychotics.

Also, Risperdal (Risperidone) can trigger diabetes and more serious conditions of glucose metabolism, including ketoacidosis and hyperosmolar coma.

Risperdal (Risperidone) is a strong dopamine blocker (antagonist); i.e., it inhibits functioning of postsynaptic dopamine receptors.

It reaches peak plasma levels quickly regardless of whether it is administered as a liquid or pill. The strong dopamine-blocking reaction is known to make some people feel nauseated if they do things that normally trigger the dopamine response, such as eat a pleasing meal or experience orgasm[original research?][citation needed]. Risperdal (Risperidone) is metabolised fairly quickly, so this potential for nausea subsides usually in two to three hours. However the active metabolite, 9-hydroxy-Risperdal (Risperidone), which has similar pharmacodynamics to Risperdal (Risperidone), lingers in the body for much longer.

An intramuscular preparation, marketed as Risperdal Consta, can be given once every two weeks. It is slowly released from the injection site. It can be useful in patients who have difficulty taking oral medication for any reason. Some people prefer a once-every-two-weeks injection to daily pills. It also helps the physician ensure compliance. Doses range from 25 to 50 mg given as an intramuscular injection once every two weeks.

What is the shelf life of the pills?

• The expiry date is mentioned on each blister. It is different for different batches. The shelf life is 2 years from the date of manufacture and would differ from batch to batch depending on when they were manufactured.
