Risperdal Man-Boobs?


Recommended Posts

Anyone else feel like they may have them?  I gained a lot of weight overall on antipsychotics, especially zyprexa and risperdal, but now that I'm losing some of it I am feeling a little bit like it is not leaving my chest area as quickly as I'd like.  I was on a fairly low dose of risperdal but it definitely affected my libido while I was on it so I sort of wonder if the prolactin side effect may have triggered the man-boob thing.

In the six or so months I've been on risperidone I can happily say I haven't had man boobs. But I can relate to you with paranoia, my libido was affected at first too but it soon came back during that time I kept looking at my chest, trying to see if there's been a difference. If you're worried about it too much you could ask for a blood test, I suppose.
