so I wonder instead of giving him either, If I could just try having his Risperdal raised to a higher dose, He only takes .25 mgs am and .25pm and when he gets wierd and very moody I give him half of a pill which is .12 mgs.and I was told that is an extremely low dose, I havent got a p doc until may, the doc that saw him in the hospital really wont do anything for him at this point, and his new doc doesnt see him until then I really need to call them and at least see if the doc can call me and discuss it over the phone and see what he recommends... thanks for the advice I will take care of it. rex
