(((((((((((((((((((((((((Hello!))))))))))))))))))))))))))))

I am on Risperdal that I take w/ my bedtime meds. I have COPD (which includes asthma & chronic bronchitis) I have to sleep in an almost "sitting up" position.

Risperdal causes weight gain, agitation, headache & most importantly in contraindicated in ppl w/ breathing problems d/t possibility of aspiration pneumonia..........

I suggest you talk to your doc immediatedly!!!!! He may want to adjust the dose or take you off it completely (d/t your nasty side effects. )
