- Severe agitation

- Alzheimer's disease
- Dementia
- Parkinson's disease
Benefits of Riscon LS
- In Schizophrenia
- Riscon LS quietens the hallucinations, fixed false beliefs and disordered thinking of schizophrenia, and taken regularly it prevents relapse.
- In Bipolar disorder
- Riscon LS brings an episode of mania under control and helps keep mood stable between episodes.
- In Severe agitation
- Riscon LS calms severe agitation and distress so the person is safe and can be cared for.
- In Psychosis
- Riscon LS restores a clearer grip on reality by settling the brain chemistry behind hallucinations and delusions.
- In Alzheimer's disease
- Riscon LS supports the brain's memory chemistry, which can steady memory, thinking and daily functioning for a time. It slows the effects of the disease rather than reversing them.
- In Dementia
- Riscon LS helps maintain attention, memory and the ability to manage daily tasks for longer in dementia.
- In Parkinson's disease
- Riscon LS replaces or mimics the dopamine the brain is losing, easing the stiffness, slowness and tremor of Parkinson's so movement is freer.
How Riscon LS works
This medicine combines 2 active ingredients: Risperidone and Trihexyphenidyl. Risperidone rebalances the chemical messengers in the brain that, in excess, produce hallucinations, delusions and severe agitation. Trihexyphenidyl supports the chemical messengers in the brain that control memory, attention and movement.

Warnings and precautions
Report any tremor, stiffness, restlessness or uncontrollable movements of the face, tongue or limbs to your doctor promptly — these can become persistent if not addressed. Seek emergency care for high fever with severe muscle stiffness, confusion and sweating. This is rare but life-threatening. These medicines can raise blood sugar, cholesterol and weight. Your doctor will monitor them — keep those appointments. Never stop suddenly; your doctor will reduce the dose gradually. Take care in hot weather — this group affects how your body regulates temperature. Never stop a Parkinson's medicine suddenly — this can cause a severe and dangerous deterioration. Dose timing matters a great deal in Parkinson's disease. Take it at exactly the times prescribed. Report sudden daytime sleep attacks, hallucinations, or new gambling, spending or other impulsive behaviour — these are recognised effects and the dose may need review. Rise slowly from sitting or lying; a drop in blood pressure on standing is common.
Do not take Riscon LS if
Not for anyone with a known allergy to this medicine or to any ingredient in the pack. Your doctor will assess suitability if you have heart disease, Parkinson's disease or dementia. Your doctor will assess suitability if you have heart, eye or psychiatric conditions.
Interactions with other medicines
Alcohol and sedatives add to the drowsiness. Tell your doctor about any medicine that affects heart rhythm. Anti-emetics such as metoclopramide and some antipsychotics can worsen Parkinson's symptoms. High-protein meals can reduce the absorption of levodopa — ask your doctor about timing.
