when i started using risperdol, my husband complained that i started snoring and he complained daily about my breath,. i did everything to make my breath better but he kept complaining about it. it was bad for my self esteem. After 8 years on it, i am no longer on risperdol because i started lactating and my doc said it was because of the risperdol, also i went severely manic. now i am on abilify and i no longer snore and my breath stays fresh after brushing my teeth.
did any of you experience these symptoms from risperdol?

I had lactation at 3 mg so we cut the dose back to 2 mg. becuase of other side effects I too switched to abilify but as far as bad breath or snoring, not that I know of but I'm not married.

I've been on risperdol for only a month now, but one night I was snoring so loud that I woke myself up. I don't know if I am still snoring or not and I also heard that lactation is a common side effect.
