It’s one such illness where medicines have more role to play than therapies etc (in acute phase of illness). Risperidone is a good drug, but needs to be used under expert guidance. Duration of treatment varies from patient to patient, so can’t comment on life time usage.

Hi.. no schizophrenia cannot be cured by therapy alone. One needs to take medicines along with therapy. It is caused by neuro transmitter imbalances in the brain if there are any side-effects due to risperidone other medicines can be tried..
Next Steps
consult for treatment
