Risperidone.

Curly_chris

Hi, My son is 9 years old, he has been given a diagnosis of Autism Spectrum disorder, sensory processing disorder and is currently being assessed for ADHD (from what i have been told he is highly likely to get a diagnosis).

After speaking to his physciatrist today she has suggested putting him on Risperidone as this will help keep him a little calmer and slow his thoughts down so he can manage with things easier.

Has anyone ever had any experience with this medication? if so what are your thoughts.

Thanks

Chris

    Not tried those particular ones no; they look like they will be a bit of a better fit than the ones we have tried.

    Ordered them and will see how they go :D

    Thanks, just want to make sure we try every possible way to try and make his life easier and more comfortable it must be hard being so much more sensitive to sound, touch ... well everything really!

    THanks again
