"risperidone has been a life saver for me. i went through so many mood stabilizers, but nothing seemed to help with my mood swings. i would also experience horrible side effects from some of these medications. i was about ready to give up when my doctor suggested i try risperidone. it improved my mood a lot. i no longer experience those crazy mood swings &amp; i haven&#039;t experienced any side effects or tremors either. i highly recommend this medication."
