Dear lybrate-user, Risdone was controlling your husband's symptoms of mood swings, murmuring and self laughing. Now risdone is not given, he is having all these symptoms. Please consult a psychiatrist who can prescribe tablets or long acting injectables for your husband. You can ask for side effects of risdone liquid, if it prescribed.
