GENERIC: Risperidone 1mg

MANUFACTURER: Organic Pharmaceuticals (Pvt) Ltd

QUANTITY:

10 tablets per pack

INDICATION

Oridone 1mg Tab is an atypical antipsychotic indicated for the treatment of schizophrenia, including first episodes and relapse prevention. It is also used in moderate to severe manic episodes of bipolar disorder and for short-term treatment of aggression in patients with Alzheimer's dementia or conduct disorder in children and adolescents.

MECHANISM OF ACTION

Risperidone acts as a potent antagonist at dopamine D2 receptors and serotonin 5-HT2A receptors. Blockade of mesolimbic D2 receptors reduces positive psychotic symptoms such as hallucinations and delusions. Simultaneous 5-HT2A antagonism in the prefrontal cortex improves negative symptoms including emotional blunting and social withdrawal, and reduces extrapyramidal side effects compared to older antipsychotics. Risperidone also blocks alpha-1 adrenergic and histamine H1 receptors, contributing to sedation and orthostatic hypotension at higher doses.

DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION

•      Adults’ schizophrenia: 1mg twice daily on day 1; increase to 2mg twice daily on day 2; target 4 to 8mg per day

•      Elderly: start at 0.5mg twice daily and titrate very slowly

•      Children conduct disorder: 0.25mg per day initially, titrated under specialist supervision

•      Always follow the titration schedule prescribed by your psychiatrist; never stop abruptly

SIDE EFFECTS

Common:

•      Extrapyramidal symptoms: tremor, rigidity, akathisia (dose-related)

•      Somnolence and sedation

•      Weight gain and increased appetite

•      Hyperprolactinemia: galactorrhea, amenorrhea, sexual dysfunction

Less common:

•      Tardive dyskinesia with prolonged use

•      Orthostatic hypotension and dizziness, especially at initiation

•      QT prolongation (rare at therapeutic doses)

•      Metabolic effects: dyslipidemia, hyperglycemia, increased diabetes risk

NOT RECOMMENDED IN

•      Known hypersensitivity to risperidone or paliperidone

•      Elderly patients with dementia-related psychosis (increased risk of stroke and death)

•      Parkinson's disease or Lewy body dementia

•      Concurrent use with other antipsychotics without specialist guidance

DRUG INTERACTIONS

CYP2D6 inhibitors such as fluoxetine and paroxetine increase risperidone plasma levels significantly; dose reduction may be required. Carbamazepine and other CYP3A4 inducers reduce risperidone levels, potentially causing loss of efficacy. CNS depressants have additive sedative effects. Antihypertensives may have additive hypotensive effects due to risperidone's alpha-1 blocking activity.

STORAGE INSTRUCTIONS
