FAQ
What strengths and pack sizes of Risnia can I order?
Risnia comes as 2mg tablets in packs of 30 to 270 tablets. Larger packs cost less per tablet.
How discreet is delivery of Risnia to Hong Kong?
Every Risnia order ships in plain, unbranded packaging with nothing on the outside about the contents. You can pay by Visa, Mastercard or American Express on a secure, encrypted payment page, or by Bitcoin or Ethereum; card details never reach the shop's servers.
Does Risnia have other names?
Risnia is a branded generic of risperidone, the ingredient in Risperdal. Here, risperidone can be bought online as Risnia, and also as generic Risperdal and risperidone tablets. These are generics, not the original brand.
How long does Risnia take to work?
Sleep and agitation often settle within the first week or two, while delusions and hallucinations usually take several weeks to ease. The medicine has to be taken steadily for that to happen — gaps in treatment make the benefit patchier.
Can I drink alcohol with Risnia?
Alcohol deepens the sleepiness and dizziness that risperidone causes, so keep drinking light while you are on it. A heavy session can also leave you feeling faint when you stand up, because both alcohol and risperidone widen blood vessels and lower blood pressure.
Does Risnia cause weight gain?
Weight gain is one of the most common effects of risperidone, and appetite often climbs within the first few weeks. It builds gradually over months and varies a great deal between people. Regular meals and fewer sugary drinks make the change easier to live with.
What is the difference between Risnia and Risperdal?
They contain the same active ingredient, risperidone, so what differs is the brand name and the strengths on offer. Risnia comes as a 2mg tablet, while Risperdal is sold in 1mg, 2mg, 3mg and 4mg tablets.
Is Risnia addictive?
No. Risperidone is not a drug of abuse and does not produce a high, so it is not addictive in the way that opioids or stimulants are. Stopping it suddenly can still bring insomnia, nausea, headache or a return of symptoms, which is why the dose is usually lowered in steps.
About Risnia
What Risnia 2mg tablets are used for
Risnia is a risperidone 2mg tablet. Risperidone belongs to the antipsychotic group of medicines and is used in schizophrenia, a long-term condition that disturbs thinking and perception — hearing or seeing things that are not there, holding beliefs that do not match reality, muddled speech, and pulling away from other people. It also treats the manic and mixed episodes of bipolar disorder, when thoughts race, agitation builds and sleep disappears.
How risperidone works, and how to take it
Dopamine and serotonin are the brain's messengers for mood, perception and thought. Risperidone blocks some of the receptors they act on, damping down signalling that has become overactive. It is not a sedative, and it does not work straight away: disturbed sleep and agitation often settle before delusions and hallucinations do.
Swallow the tablet with water, once or twice a day, either with food or between meals. Doses are started low and raised gradually to the level that keeps symptoms steady. Keeping to the same times each day helps the amount in your body stay even.
Side effects
Early on, sleepiness, dizziness, dry mouth, constipation and a faster heartbeat are common, along with weight gain and a bigger appetite. Risperidone also raises prolactin, a hormone that can cause breast tenderness, milk leakage or missed periods in women and breast swelling in men. Movements of the mouth, tongue or face that you cannot control can develop after months of treatment. Fever with stiff muscles, sweating, confusion and a racing heartbeat is rare and needs urgent treatment.
Alcohol, other medicines and storage
Alcohol adds to the drowsiness, as do sleeping tablets, anxiety medicines and opioid painkillers. Blood pressure medicines can make dizziness on standing worse. Store the tablets in their original pack, somewhere dry and away from direct heat.
Risnia, Risperdal and plain risperidone
Risnia is sold as a 2mg tablet only. Risperdal and Risperidone hold the same active ingredient under their own brand names, and their tablets come in 1mg, 2mg, 3mg and 4mg. Both are also used for irritability linked to autism, which Risnia is not.
