I just started taking resperidone (getting off Latuda) while I continue to take klonopin, adderral, Prozac and depakote. I wanted to know how often people get blood work for prolactin levels on this. I actually took it ten years ago and I don’t recall. My doctor gave me a script for blood work in a month but after that how often should it be tested. I ask because I took lithium for 15 years and tho I had plenty of blood work in that time nobody ever tested my kidney levels and I ended up with stage 3 kidney disease which I’ll have to deal with for life as even after stopping lithium the damage to kidneys was already permanent. Anyway, anyone who has taken risperidone please tell me the frequency of blood work for prolactin b/c I’m asking my gynecologist to test me after initial test b/c I doubt the clinic I go to will be responsible enough to keep track.
Thank you
Mel
