Available strengths: <strong>1 \/ 2 \/ 3 \/ 4 mg<\/strong>. Risperidone is a strong D2 and 5-HT2A antagonist with \u03b11-adrenergic and H1 antihistamine activity, but minimal anticholinergic effect. The strong D2 blockade explains both the strong antipsychotic effect and the high rate of EPS and prolactin elevation.<\/p>\n<h2>Indikasjoner og dosering<\/h2>\n<table>\n<thead>\n<tr>\n<th>Indikasjon<\/th>\n<th>Startdose<\/th>\n<th>M\u00e5ldose<\/th>\n<th>Maks<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td>Schizofreni (voksen)<\/td>\n<td>1\u20132 mg OD or BID<\/td>\n<td>4\u20136 mg\/day<\/td>\n<td>16 mg<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Schizofreni (ungdom \u2265 13 \u00e5r)<\/td>\n<td>0.5 mg OD<\/td>\n<td>3 mg\/day<\/td>\n<td>6 mg<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Bipolar mania<\/td>\n<td>2\u20133 mg OD<\/td>\n<td>2\u20136 mg\/day<\/td>\n<td>6 mg<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Autism irritability (paediatric \u2265 5 y)<\/td>\n<td>0.25\u20130.5 mg OD<\/td>\n<td>0.5\u20133 mg\/day weight-based<\/td>\n<td>2.5\u20133 mg<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Eldre\/demens (off-label, siste utvei)<\/td>\n<td>0.25 mg OD<\/td>\n<td>0.5\u20131 mg\/day<\/td>\n<td>2 mg<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<h2>Viktige sikkerhetshensyn<\/h2>\n<div style=\"background:#fff3f3;border-left:4px solid #d9534f;padding:14px 18px;margin:18px 0;border-radius:4px;\">\n<strong>FDA black-box \u2014 demensrelatert psykose<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom:0;\">Alle atypiske antipsykotika b\u00e6rer en FDA black-box advarsel for \u00f8kt d\u00f8delighet (hovedsakelig kardiovaskul\u00e6r og infeksi\u00f8s) n\u00e5r de brukes til \u00e5 behandle atferdsforstyrrelser hos eldre med demens. <strong>Atypiske antipsykotika er ikke godkjent for demensrelatert psykose eller agitasjon<\/strong>.

Block D2 in the pituitary, and prolactin rises \u2014 sometimes 5\u201310\u00d7 normal. The downstream hormonal effects (amenorrhoea, galactorrhoea, sexual dysfunction, accelerated osteoporosis) are common. Switching to aripiprazole or quetiapine usually normalises prolactin within weeks.<\/p>\n<h3>How is Risdone different from olanzapine?<\/h3>\n<p>Risperidone has a stronger acute antipsychotic effect for many positive symptoms but produces more EPS and far more hyperprolactinaemia. Olanzapine is metabolically heavier but doesn&rsquo;t affect prolactin much. Choice depends on patient priorities: avoid weight gain \u2192 risperidone; avoid prolactin\/EPS \u2192 olanzapine or aripiprazole.<\/p>\n<h3>Will Risdone make me gain weight?<\/h3>\n<p>Yes \u2014 moderate, typically 2\u20134 kg over 6 months. Less than olanzapine or quetiapine, more than aripiprazole or lurasidone.<\/p>\n<h3>Can Risdone be used in children?<\/h3>\n<p>Yes \u2014 risperidone is one of the most-prescribed atypicals in paediatrics, particularly for autism-associated irritability (FDA approval from age 5) and bipolar disorder (from age 10). Long-term use in children carries growth and prolactin concerns; specialist supervision recommended.<\/p>\n<h3>How long until Risdone works?<\/h3>\n<p>Acute calming and reduced agitation within hours of the first oral dose. Antipsychotic effect on positive symptoms usually within 1\u20132 weeks; full effect at 4\u20136 weeks. Bipolar mania response within days.<\/p>\n<h3>What about the orodispersible form?<\/h3>\n<p>Risperidone is also available as an orodispersible MT formulation that dissolves on the tongue \u2014 useful in acute psychosis or dysphagia.<\/p>\n<h3>Are LAI versions available?<\/h3>\n<p>Yes \u2014 Risperdal Consta (biweekly), Perseris (monthly subcutaneous), and Uzedy (monthly or bimonthly) are the three depot risperidone formulations, used for adherence support. The oral form is the standard initiation and titration formulation.<\/p>\n<h3>What about driving on Risdone?<\/h3>\n<p>The first 1\u20132 weeks of titration can impair reaction time. Most patients on stable doses drive normally. Avoid alcohol and other CNS depressants when driving.<\/p>\n<h3>Can Risdone be stopped abruptly?<\/h3>\n<p>Taper over 2\u20134 weeks. The relapse risk in schizophrenia and bipolar disease is the main reason for caution.<\/p>\n<h3>Does Risdone prolong the QT interval?<\/h3>\n<p>Modest effect; less than ziprasidone or thioridazine. Pre-treatment ECG is not routinely required but is reasonable in patients with cardiac risk factors.<\/p>\n<h2>Andre psykofarmaka<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/medsbase.com\/nb\/aripicon\/\">Aripicon (Aripiprazol \u2014 D2-partiell agonist)<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/medsbase.com\/nb\/olanzap\/\">Olanzap (Olanzapin \u2014 kraftig antipsykotikum)<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/medsbase.com\/nb\/risdone\/\">Risdone (Risperidon)<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/medsbase.com\/nb\/seroquit\/\">Seroquit (Quetiapin \u2014 bipolar depresjon)<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/medsbase.com\/nb\/atlura\/\">Atlura (Lurasidon \u2014 metabolsk trygg)<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><!-- medsbase-related-alts-v1 --><\/p>\n<div style=\"background:#fff3f3;border-left:4px solid #d9534f;padding:14px 18px;margin:18px 0;border-radius:4px;font-size:0.9em;\">\n<strong>Medisinsk ansvarsfraskrivelse.<\/strong> Denne siden er kun til informasjon og er ikke erstatning for individuell medisinsk r\u00e5dgivning.
