my little brother was on it until recently and he was on it as a mood enhancer, if your son was diagnosed with either depression, ADD, ADHD, or ODD, those are common ones in kids, that probably what its for. and as long as the perscribing doctors keep up with his growing with the dosage it should be a great help to you, him, and the others you may live with. Good Luck!!

Why is Risperdal prescribed?
Risperdal is prescribed for the treatment of schizophrenia, a severe mental disorder that can cause delusions (false beliefs) and hallucinations. It is also used for the short-term treatment of mania associated with bipolar disorder. Risperdal is thought to work by muting the impact of dopamine and serotonin, two of the brain's key chemical messengers.

I took Risperdal for approximately 4 years. It worked well, but I had to be taken off of it. It caused a mass at the base of my pituitary gland. All of the anti-psychotics have some side effects, but it is always a good idea to research any medication and find out as much as you can. Good luck to you and your son.

easily!! My dogs do truly foul farts, surely each dogs i have ever been close to that has farted has smelled truly undesirable. as a rule i imagine they do quiet farts, i have under no circumstances heard a noisy one and that i dont imagine the intensity of scent has some thing to do with the dimensions of the dogs. i have had a German Sheperd, a Border Collie, a Kelpie, a Maltese, a Shih Tzu and a Dachsund, all of them do quiet yet stinky farts. Oh, they have all had diverse diets too. also I worked for and were in touch with for the RSPCA for 18 years heard many diverse dogs do their agency. under no circumstances heard a cat, yet I surely have smelt it! All animals do it, a similar as us - if it has a bowel, it will fart. desire that permits.

My brother's girlfriend takes it, she has bipolar disorder. I think it makes her dizzy sometimes and she will stop taking it and then it's hell to be around her.
