Risdone Liquid is used to treat schizophrenia in adults and adolescents aged 13-17 years. It is also used alone or in combination with other medicines to treat mania or mixed episodes (mania and depression) associated with Bipolar I disorder in adults, and alone in children and adolescents aged 10-17 years.

It is also used to treat irritability associated with autistic disorder in children and adolescents aged 5 to 16 years.

Risdone Liquid contains 'Risperidone' that works by blocking the effects of chemical messengers in the brain (i.e. dopamine and serotonin). Thus, it helps in improving mood, behaviour and thoughts. Risdone Liquid elevates the symptoms of the disease and prevents them from coming back.

In some cases, you may experience certain common side effects, such as sleepiness, vomiting, constipation, abdominal pain, nausea, dizziness, dry mouth, and fatigue. Most of these side effects do not require medical attention and will resolve gradually over time. However, consult your doctor if these side effects persist or worsen.

Consult your doctor if you are pregnant or planning for pregnancy. Avoid breastfeeding while on treatment with Risdone Liquid.
