Talk to Psychiatry on Sleep Issue With Risperidone

person-avatar

Asking For Self, Male 36, Islamabad

I'm on fluoxetine 40 mg and risperidone 0.5 mg for existential OCD. 90 percent better now but the main issue is I can't sleep with the addition of risperidone 0.5 mg, any option of drugs that can be used with risperidone for sleep onset? that I can discuss with my doc. I don't want to change risperidone as it's helping with the Obsessions very well. thanks
