I have a few female friends on Risperdol. All complain of the weight gain more than anything else. The younger ones (twenty-somethings) this really ... distresses. No dealing with teens though.
I know they even prescribe it for those as young as 13. I posted a story on Facebook of a Detroit mother who had a shoot out with the police and child protective services over Risperdol.
Good luck to you and your daughter.
