As you probably are aware this drug belongs to the drug class of atypical antipsychotics which treats the symptoms of schizophrenia and bipolar disorder.
Now, there are 3 side effects that may help you sleep as Risperidone is not a sleeping aid, one is sedation up to 63%, somnolence up to 26% and dizziness up to 16% of people experience these very common side effects.
