摘要

Risperidone acts by potent serotonergic,dopaminergic and alpha adrenergic receptor antagonism.The most common side effects reported are extrapyramidal symptoms,dizziness,sedation,insomnia,headache,anxiety,nausea,constipation and weight gain.Oedema associated with risperidone use is a rare side effect.Here we present a report on pedal oedema associated with use of oral risperidone 4 mg per day for acute-onset psychotic illness.Through this case report we want to make clinicians aware about this important side effect as it can affect patients*compliance and quality of life.
