MY SON IS 10 YEARS OLD. HE HAS EXPERIENCED FLU LIKE SYMPTOMS FOR ABOUT THREE DAYS NOW. HE CURRENTLY TAKES CONCERTA AND RISPERDAL. ON JUST ABOUT EVERY OVER THE COUNTER DRUG HAS A WARNING ON IT'S LABLE ABOUT MONOAMINE OXIDASE INHIBITOR-MAOI SHOULDN'T BE TAKEN WITH THESE COMMOM OVER THE COUNTER DRUGS LIKE TRIAMINIC COLD AND COUGH. ONE DOCTOR TOLD ME THAT I COULD USE THE TRIAMINIC AND THE PHARMICITIST TOLD ME NOT TO. MY QUESTION IS, DOES RISPERDAL CONTAIN MAOI? ARE THERE ANY USABLE OVER THE COUNTER DRUGS THAT WORKS WELL WITH RISPERDAL THAT WON'T HARM MY SON?
