Risnia 1mg Tablet

Care must be taken when using Risnia 1 mg with some other medications. Check with your doctor before using any prescription medicine or medicine bought without a prescription from a pharmacy or a health food shop. This is especially important for:

— Medicines that may make your child sleepy (strong pain relievers, sedatives, tricyclic antidepressants, some antihistamines)

— Medicines indicated for controlling seizures or fits (valproate, phenytoin, carbamazepine)

— Drugs used to treat depression, anxiety, obsessive-compulsive disorder

— Medicines are used for the treatment of blood pressure or heart disease.

Risperidone may cause some people to become drowsy. Let your child and their teacher know this, and notify your doctor if it becomes troublesome. Dizziness, light-headedness, or fainting may occur, especially when standing from a lying or sitting position suddenly and after every shot of shower and rising from the toilet. Getting up slowly may help resolve dizziness. If the problem persists or worsens, please check with your doctor.

This is not the complete risk list of precautions to be taken. Speak to your doctor about possible interactions with over-the-counter or complementary medicines or substances like alcohol.

Side effects that occur while taking Risnia 1 mg. Some of these are not serious and will resolve with time or after the dose has been changed. Others are more serious, and you must check with your doctor once. Less serious side effects include nausea, drowsiness, increased appetite, constipation, stuffy or runny nose, loss of bladder control,  blurred vision, restlessness, weight gain, sexual function disturbances, dry mouth, constipation, dribbling, weight gain, etc.

More serious side effects of the medicine include:

— seizures,

— marked fever,

— sweating,

— muscle rigidity,

— fast or irregular heartbeat,

— falls or blackouts due to low blood pressure, especially while standing.

Stop treatment and see a doctor immediately if you get an allergic reaction. The symptoms include skin rash, swollen mouth or lips, itching or hives, wheezing or breathing trouble.

Risnia 1 mg must be given as directed and not to other people. Do not change your dosing regimen without your doctor’s advice. Treatment usually begins with low doses and then increases over the next few days as per response and tolerance. This helps prevent a sudden drop in blood pressure, the first dose effect that may occur otherwise. Once the acute symptoms are controlled, your doctor may reduce them to the least effective maintenance level. Risnia can be taken with a glass full of water. Consult a doctor to get the appropriate dose for your condition.
