Overview Riscan 4 Tablet

Riscan 4mg tablets treat schizophrenia (a mental illness causing hallucinations, delusions, and impaired thinking/behavior) and mania. Administer with or without food, ideally at bedtime, consistently at the same time daily for optimal blood levels. Follow your doctor's prescribed dosage and duration. If a dose is missed, take it immediately upon recall. Sudden cessation is discouraged; consult your physician first to avoid symptom exacerbation. Discontinue immediately if Neuroleptic malignant syndrome (NMS) occurs (fever, muscle stiffness, altered consciousness, or seizures). Common side effects include sleep disturbances, drowsiness, nausea, cough, Parkinsonian symptoms, headache, and fever. Postural hypotension (sudden blood pressure drop upon standing) is possible initially; rise slowly from sitting or lying. Dizziness and sleepiness may occur; avoid driving or mentally demanding tasks until effects are known. Weight gain is possible; counter this with a balanced diet and exercise. Increased diabetes risk necessitates regular glucose monitoring. Report any unusual mood shifts, new or worsening depression, or suicidal thoughts to your doctor.
