Eek. I had this about 5? or so weeks ago, and even though the majority has stopped one of my breasts is still very tender and if i put pressure on it a tiny bit still comes out.
But mines definatly died down massively.
It really can vary from person to person. Have you spoken to your GP? It may not be wise for you to come off them completely unless you've spoken to someone - it all comes down to what dosage you are on. As i was in the process of coming off mine anyway i was advised just to stop as i was only on 0.5mg, but you may need to cut down slowly under supervision from your GP/psychiatrist.
I put hot water bottles on my breasts when they were really tender, it helped a lot.
Hope it settles down for you soon! I really feel for you as i went through the same and it was horrible. x

Hey, thanks for replying.
I have only took it for 2 days!! I took:
1mg -friday night
1mg - sat morning
2mg - sat night
2mg - sun morning
and thats when i noticed the lacatating :/ I thought it was only supposed to happen after a long period of time on risperidone, but i seem to be getting very sensitive to side effects off these drugs, incluing lots of movements i cant control.
Thats a good tip about the hot water bottle, mine are a little hurty too xx

I'm only on 0.5mg but have been lactating since about 3 months after I started taking risperidone about a year and a half ago. I'm too embarrassed to go to the doctors though and it helps me so I'm putting up with it. I'm glad it's nearly gone for you though.
