It does effect Prolactin levels, a lot. I was on 1mg risperidone for 2 years and didn't know why my sex drive wasn't there. I had my dr test my prolactin levels and it was 3x more than normal. I had an mri, no tumor on pituitary gland. It was the risperidone. I've been tapering off of it for 3 weeks now and have been sicker than a dog done. Today is my last day of my lowest dose .25mg. If I'm sick now what's going to happen when it's not in my system at all after today? This is a horrible drug. Oh, and my sex drive is back.
