Risperdal

Spørgsmål

My 7 year old son weighs 52 pounds. He is on Risperdal (1cc twice a day) to help him focus in school. I am concerned that the label on the medication indicated it should not be given the children. Can you provide me with information?

Svar fra vores eksperter

Risperdal can have side effects but it is widely used in children and serious problems are very rare. The dose your son is taking is low. If it helps your son then I would have no problem continuing treatment. Regarding the risks of Risperdal with children under 18, the warnings are true, but actual risk is very low – lower if the doses are small, as in this case. If the personal physician would like, checking a liver profile after a month of treatment should indicate if the drug is being tolerated. However, the potential risk for NMS (neuroleptic malignant syndrome) is not testable. Ultimately, the risks are far outweighed by the benefits of this medicine

Social functioning including ASDs

R56
A clinical diagnosis of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) should be considered in all individuals with CdLS throughout life, taking into account atypical presentations.
R57
R57: In addition to standardised ASD diagnostic tools, fine-grained observations should be carried out to accurately define the profile of social functioning in an individual with CdLS.
R58
ASD-specific interventions should be considered in all individuals with CdLS in combination with approaches that consider the broader social functioning profile of the syndrome.
