What is the Risperdal side effects problem?
Risperdal litigation has targeted the cause and side effects of Risperdal.
Although Risperdal has been on the market since 1994, it wasn’t until ten years
later in 2004 that Johnson & Johnson released information and added label
warnings saying that Risperdal side effects include hyperglycemia, diabetes
mellitus, and in some cases --
ketoacidosis or hyperosmolar coma or death.
Patients who were already diagnosed with diabetes saw their diabetes grow much
worse while taking Risperdal. Meanwhile, patients who developed diabetes from
taking Risperdal didn’t know they had diabetes, were not being treated for
diabetes, and developed complications including Risperdal-induced diabetic coma
and death.

Another problem which has finally become under public scrutiny is that the FDA
is perceived to be in cahoots with the pharmaceutical companies. Consumer
watchdog groups wonder why does it take so long for the pharmaceutical companies
to properly label and warn physicians and the public about life-threatening side
effects. How many people have to die from complications of Risperdal and other
atypical antipsychotic drugs before warning labels or drug recall happens?
Also physicians often prescribe the drug for causes that Risperdal was not
originally intended for. While Risperdal has been prescribed to children and
teens for minor behavioral conditions, no clinical trials have been conducted
within that age group. Risperdal is not a one-size fits all drug; prescribing
and monitoring requires critical diligence.
