Side Effects of Risperdal to High Risk Patients

There are deadly and serious side effects of Risperdal, including stroke, blood clots, hemorrhages, neuroleptic malignant syndrome, in addition to other adverse effects.  Some patients may have a high risk of suffering Risperdal side effects and should remain cautious.  No studies have indicated the level of safety for Risperdal patients that are pregnant, breast-feeding, or in children. 

Since Risperdal has only been approved for the treatment of schizophrenia symptoms, patients should fully consider the risk of using Risperdal.  There have also been various clinical studies showing there is an increased risk of Alzheimer’s patients using Risperdal to suffer stroke, stroke-like events, or to die.  Since Risperdal labeling has clearly stated there is no evidence that Risperdal is safe or effective in treating dementia, patients may want to reconsider their treatment options. 

It appears the wider range of conditions Risperdal is being prescribed to treat may instead be hurting the patients even more and exposing them to grater risk of suffering serious adverse effects.  For more information on Risperdal contact us.
