S.,

As with many psychotropics, a start up/break in period is necessary, before therapeutic benefits can be noted from your Rx...

You may get more feedback regarding this particular med from the members of the Depression Forum...since I am not sure if we've any members using it here.

Wishing you a fast level...and much relief! Use your coping skills...

...and keep us posted, so we can keep you in support!

Hi

Risperidone is very fast acting medication you should see improvements within a couple of days I take a similar medication and found it worked really well on my OCD.

Hope it works well for you.
