HELLO ALL--

I HAVE BEEN ON RISPERDAL FOR CLOSE TO A YEAR. I TAKE 1 MG AT NIGHT. JUST YESTERDAY MY PDOC REDUCED TO .5 MG AND TODAY I FEEL A LITTLE SHAKY AND CLOUDY DOES ANYONE KNOW IF THIS IS JUST A LITTLE WITHDRAWL OR IF MY BODY IS TELLING ME I NEED TO BE ON THE HIGHER DOSAGE?

THANKS FOR YOUR HELP

I imagine you are feeling the effects of the change in dosage but it will go away. I went off of Risperdal slowly and I don't sleep as well now.
