Hi everyone,

I'm on 5 mg of risperidone daily and 800 mg of seroquel daily.


Lately I've been noticing muscle stiffness, particularly in my hip and groin areas, that makes walking difficult.


I first noticed it when I was just on the risperidone, but it seems to be a lot worse now, so I think the seroquel is making it worse.

My mood is pretty good right now, so I think it would be safe to drop my dosages of one or both meds.


My question is, if I lower the doses, is the muscle stiffness likely to go away or is this something permanent?

Thanks.
