I know what my pill is called i was just wondering if it has anything to do with percosets or oxy contin because i looked up the molecular compound and it is similar to oxy contin and acetiminophen put together just minus 2 carbon atoms, 3 hydrogen atoms and 2 nitrogen atoms

Rispiridone

Sorry i had to look up the compounds again. Its also missing 4 oxygen atoms so it looks like it gives off 2 co2 when combined and an n2. Incase you didnt look at the topic the med is rispiridone

There is no similarity

There is no similarity really as rispiredol is an antipsychotic med.  It is kind of like saying water is similar to hydrogen except it has oxygen atoms.

Check with a licensed MD before you take any suggestions!

What does the Pr in front of the Risperdal text on my blister packs stand for?

Risperidal - is it addictive?

Is risperidal addictive in any way? I accidentally missed an m-tab because i forgot to do it until just past 11 and i didnt do it in the morning because i though i had already done it for the day. Later in the day my parents were taking me on a camping trip and on the road i very nearly or possibly did pass out in the truck. Could this be a withdrawal symptom?

No, that doesn't sound off, it actually sounds just right I was just wondering.
