Overview Sizomax 4mg Tablet

Risperidone 4mg tablets treat schizophrenia (a mental illness causing hallucinations, delusions, and impaired thinking/behavior) and mania. Administer with or without food, ideally at bedtime, but 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. Never abruptly cease treatment without consulting your physician; sudden discontinuation may exacerbate symptoms. Immediately discontinue 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) may occur initially; rise slowly from sitting or lying positions. Dizziness and sleepiness are possible; avoid driving or mentally demanding tasks until effects are known. Weight gain is a potential side effect; counter this with healthy eating and regular exercise. This medication may increase diabetes risk; regular glucose monitoring is recommended. Report any unusual mood or behavior changes, new or worsening depression, or suicidal ideation to your doctor.
