I lactated also on Risperidone and it seems a common side effect. I just told my GP outright but i'm close to my GP (and he's male) so he just said to stop it because i was already about to come off it anyway and already on a very low dosage. But i was in agony (and cried with it) but it went after 6 weeks completely for me (but some people only have it for a few weeks - but then i know people who have suffered years because they find Risperidone helps so they just put up with it - i couldn't though!)

You should really mention it to your psychiatrist or GP - it's nothing embarrassing, it's completely normal in women when having babies! They need to know hun for future reference.

Goodluck xx

P.S. Try a hot water bottle on your breasts - helps loads with the pain.
