I’m on risperidone injections once every 2 weeks. I’ve been on it for about 10ish months. About a couple months ago I started noticing I hiccuped a few times in the day. Nothing too irritating but someone told me that hiccups is a sign of brain cancer!? So I had a look for side effects of my medication again and all I could come across in regards to hiccups from my medication was someone on a forum who said they were hiccuping as well, but it was more persistent then say 6-10 times a day which is what I’m experiencing.
Any of you guys get hiccups without a cause such as from drinking something? Do you know if it’s a side effects from your meds?
I think it’s just a late side effect of my medication but I don’t know for sure, it’s been bothering me.
The site also lists generic drugs and gives detailed information on drugs including what happened most when given to a test group of people. I find it pretty reliable, I used it when I went to University of Phoenix online for some research information.
When i first started taking Lorezapam I noticed I had an increase of hiccups but they went away as my body got used to taking the drug. So I do think medication can cause hiccups…even though my doctor told me it was unusual…but I don’t know what else would have caused them all of a sudden and more than normal happenings of it.
