• if the patient has ever experienced uncontrolled movements, mainly of the face and tongue.
• if the patient has ever experienced symptoms including high fever, muscle stiffness, sweating or decreased level of consciousness (a disorder called "malignant neuroleptic syndrome").
• in patients with Parkinson's disease or dementia.
• if the patient has a history of low white blood cell count (which may have been related to, but not necessarily, the use of other medicines).
• in patients with diabetes.
• in patients with epilepsy.
• if the patient is a man and has experienced prolonged or painful erections. If such symptoms occur while taking Risperidon Vipharm, the patient should immediately contact their doctor.
• if the patient has disorders of body temperature regulation or overheats.
• if the patient has kidney function disorders.
• if the patient has liver function disorders.
• if the patient has been found to have an abnormally high level of prolactin hormone in the blood or a tumor that is likely to be prolactin-dependent.
• if the patient or any of their relatives have had blood clots in the past, as the use of such medicines as Risperidon Vipharm is associated with the formation of blood clots.

The doctor may order a white blood cell count test, as very rarely, patients taking Risperidon Vipharm have developed a dangerously low level of a certain type of white blood cell needed to fight infections in the blood.
Risperidon Vipharm may cause weight gain. Significant weight gain can have a negative impact on health. The doctor should regularly measure the patient's weight.
As diabetes or worsening of existing diabetes has been observed in patients taking Risperidon Vipharm, the doctor should order a blood sugar test.
In patients with existing diabetes, blood glucose levels should be regularly monitored.
During eye surgery to remove cataracts, the pupil (the black circle in the center of the eye), when required, may not increase in size. The iris (the colored part of the eye) may also become soft during surgery, which can lead to vision damage. If the patient knows that they will undergo eye surgery in the future, they should inform their ophthalmologist about taking this medicine.

Elderly patients with dementia

In elderly patients with dementia, there is an increased risk of stroke. Patients with dementia caused by stroke should not take risperidone.
During treatment with Risperidon Vipharm, the patient should frequently consult their doctor.
Medical help should be sought immediately if the patient or their caregiver notices a sudden change in the patient's mental state or sudden weakness or numbness of the face, arms or legs, especially on one side, or speech disorders, even if they occur for a short time. These symptoms may signal a stroke.

Children and adolescents

Before starting treatment for behavioral disorders, other causes of aggressive behavior should be ruled out.
If the patient experiences fatigue during treatment, changing the time of risperidone administration may improve concentration.
Before starting treatment, the patient's weight (also in the case of a child patient) may be measured and regularly monitored during treatment.

Risperidon Vipharm and other medicines

The patient should tell their doctor or pharmacist about all medicines they are currently taking or have recently taken, as well as any medicines they plan to take.
Patients should especially inform their doctor or pharmacist if they are taking any of the following medicines:

• medicines that act on the brain, such as sedatives (benzodiazepines) or certain painkillers (opioids), antihistamines (some antihistamines), as risperidone may enhance their sedative effect,

• medicines that increase the activity of the central nervous system (psychostimulants, such as methylphenidate)

The following medicines may weaken the effect of risperidone:

• rifampicin (a medicine used to treat certain infections),
• carbamazepine, phenytoin (antiepileptic medicines),

• quinidine (used in certain heart diseases),
• antidepressants, such as paroxetine, fluoxetine, tricyclic antidepressants,
• beta-adrenergic blockers (used to treat high blood pressure),

• cimetidine, ranitidine (reducing stomach acid), If the patient starts or stops taking these medicines, it may be necessary to change the dose of risperidone.
