RISNIA MD 3 (Risperidone (3mg))

Risnia MD 3 Tablet is indicated for the management of schizophrenia, a psychiatric condition that may lead to hallucinations or delusional thoughts, and can also have a significant impact on an individual’s cognition and behavior. It is also used in the treatment of mania. The tablet can be ingested with or without food, but it is generally recommended to take it at night. Consistency in timing is key, so taking it at the same hour each day is beneficial in achieving stable medication levels in the bloodstream. Follow the dosage and duration prescribed by your healthcare provider. In the event that a dose is missed, it should be taken promptly upon remembering. However, it is crucial not to discontinue this medication abruptly without consulting your doctor, as this may exacerbate your symptoms. Immediate cessation of the drug is necessary if Neuroleptic Malignant Syndrome (NMS) occurs, which includes symptoms such as high fever, severe muscle stiffness, altered mental status, or seizures. Initial usage may cause a significant drop in blood pressure upon standing, hence it is advisable to rise gradually. Dizziness and drowsiness may occur, so it’s important to avoid driving or performing tasks requiring full mental alertness until you understand how this medication affects you. Weight gain is a possibility, although adopting a healthy lifestyle with proper diet and exercise can help mitigate this side effect. Regular monitoring of blood glucose levels is advised as there is a potential risk of increased diabetes risk while on this medication. Report any notable changes in mood or behavior, including new or worsening depressive symptoms or thoughts of self-harm, to your healthcare provider.
