Coming off Risperdal Consta

Postby risperidona123 » Sun Dec 01, 2013 9:46 pm

Hello, I was wondering, how does one, when the time comes, come off Risperal Consta?
Does one simply not take a new injection? Or is it necessary to phase it off by taking Risperal pills?

oftentimes people will be prescribed the pill form until they are weaned down enough to come off the medication. It's always a good thing to ask your pdoc though :)
