I have been taking rispderdal for 10 years now. I would like to cease taking the medication because of much too elevated levels of prolactin resulting in very little production of testosterone. I feel I will be ok doing this, if not i will resume. I understand it might be difficult so i'm wondering how to do it. I am not having delusions or hallucinations.

I currently take 5-6mg of risperdal at bedtime. In the past I have not been able to go to sleep without it. I take the additional 1-2mg for no other reason than its hard to sleep sometimes. Would like to know how people at the same dosages (4mg or 5mg or so) have gotten off it successfully. I understand that most of the time its done through a psychiatrist. i dont see mine often enough to be able to do this.

thank you
