Risperidone (Risperdal) is used in many of mental disorders like schizophrenia, bipolar mania and irritability associated with autism. It is classified as an atypical antipsychotic, where the term atypical denotes that it is a new-generation antipsychotic with unique action compared with typical agents.
Risperidone is available as a tablet to treat schizophrenia, one of the most common forms of psychosis. It mainly involves positive symptoms like hallucinations, delusions, and disorganized thoughts. Negative symptoms include a lack of emotions, withdrawal from social interactions, and a lack of motivation. Being an atypical antipsychotic, risperidone can control both positive and negative symptoms of schizophrenia.
