Overview Arpisam 15mg Tablet

Risperdal 15mg tablets are used to manage psychotic disorders. This medication is indicated for schizophrenia (a mental illness characterized by hallucinations, delusions, and impaired thinking and behavior) and manic episodes. It's also prescribed for depression and bipolar conditions. Risperdal 15mg tablets are administered orally, with or without food, ideally in the morning. Maintaining a consistent daily intake helps ensure stable drug levels. Follow your doctor's prescribed dosage and duration; if a dose is missed, take it immediately upon remembering. Complete the entire course of treatment, even if symptoms improve. Discontinuing this medication abruptly is unsafe and may exacerbate symptoms; consult your doctor before stopping. Common side effects include nausea, vomiting, blurred vision, and dry mouth. Initially, postural hypotension (sudden blood pressure drops upon standing) may occur; rise slowly from a seated or lying position. Drowsiness and dizziness are also possible; avoid driving or activities requiring alertness until the medication's effects are known. Elevated blood sugar and cholesterol levels may occur; a healthy diet and regular exercise can help mitigate this. Report any unusual mood or behavior changes, new or worsening depression, or suicidal thoughts to your physician immediately.
