Risperidone is a benzisoxazole derivative. It functions as an antagonist for dopamine D2, histamine H1 and α1 and α2 adrenergic receptors. Risperidone is used to treat schizophrenia, bipolar disorder and autism Risperidone has been used: • to study its effects on bone formation and differentiation • to investigate the relationship between risperidone (RIS) dosages and RIS plasma levels in autism spectrum disorder (ASD) pediatric patients • to reverse induced schizophrenia-like behavior in mice Risperidone is a benzisoxazole derivative.
