Do you know yours?
I’m on a prolactin hormone increasing med called Risperdal Consta. My current level is 115.2 Normal is 3.0 to 18.0 Too high of a level over many years runs a good risk of breast cancer in women.
I’ve been on one form or another of risperidone, on and off, ever since 1996, and my prolactin levels have always been high.
Now that I’m in the “older” category, I think this is too high a risk to take. So, I’m going ahead with me and my pdocs planned Risperdal Consta dose reduction this Thursday with a mind to eventually going completely off of it. If we have to add a different med, than so be it.
