[QUOTE=ger715;1218959]Mari,

It caught my eye when Kay mentioned the possibility of Resperdal causing an episode. I hope you don't mind my asking if you are currently taking Resperdal? I know my mother really had issues with this med.

As far as sleeping is concerned; I know how important that can be. The only things that really helps me get 5 or 6 hrs. sleep is Ambien Cr. But that is not for everyone.



Hi, Gerry,

Thanks.

I am sorry about your mom on this stuff.

I am taking a tiny dose once a day -- so tiny it is off the charts.
Here is how the manufacturer recommends risperdal for adults with bipolar:
Risperdal Dosage Guide - Drugs.com
From 2 to 3 mg to 1 to 6 mg

I have mostly been taking 0.06 mgs at night.
