What is Ridonex

Treating schizophrenia. It may be used alone or with other medicine to treat bipolar disorder. It may also be used for other conditions as determined by your doctor.
Ridonex is an atypical antipsychotic. It works by affecting certain substances in the brain.

Important safety information:

• Ridonex may cause drowsiness, dizziness, light-headedness, or blurred vision. These effects may be worse if you take it with alcohol or certain medicines. Use Ridonex with caution. Do not drive or perform other possibly unsafe tasks until you know how you react to it.
• Do not drink alcohol while you are using Ridonex.
• Check with your doctor before taking medicines that may cause drowsiness while you are using Ridonex; it may add to their effects. Ask your pharmacist if you have questions about which medicines may cause drowsiness.
• Ridonex may cause dizziness, light-headedness, or fainting; alcohol, hot weather, exercise, or fever may increase these effects. To prevent them, sit up or stand slowly, especially in the morning. Sit or lie down at the first sign of any of these effects.
• Do not become overheated in hot weather or while you are being active; heatstroke may occur.
• Patients who have bipolar (manic-depressive) illness, or if their family members have had it, may be at increased risk for suicidal thoughts or actions. Watch patients who take Ridonex closely. Contact the doctor at once if new, worsened, or sudden symptoms such as anxious, restless, or irritable behavior; depressed mood; panic attacks; or any unusual change in mood or behavior occur. Contact the doctor right away if any signs of suicidal thoughts or actions occur.
• Ridonex may raise your blood sugar. High blood sugar may make you feel confused, drowsy, or thirsty. It can also make you flush, breathe faster, or have a fruit-like breath odor. If these symptoms occur, tell your doctor right away.
• Diabetes patients - Check blood sugar levels closely. Ask your doctor before you change the dose of your diabetes medicine.
• Ridonex may lower the ability of your body to fight infection. Avoid contact with people who have colds or infections. Tell your doctor if you notice signs of infection like fever, sore throat, rash, or chills.
• Neuroleptic malignant syndrome (NMS) is a possibly fatal syndrome that can be caused by Ridonex. Symptoms may include fever; stiff muscles; confusion; abnormal thinking; fast or irregular heartbeat; and sweating. Contact your doctor at once if you have any of these symptoms.
• Some patients who take Ridonex may develop muscle movements that they cannot control. This is more likely to happen in elderly patients, especially women. The chance that this will happen or that it will become permanent is greater in those who take Ridonex in higher doses or for a long time. Muscle problems may also occur after short-term treatment with low doses. Tell your doctor at once if you have muscle problems with your arms; legs; or your tongue, face, mouth, or jaw (eg, tongue sticking out, puffing of cheeks, mouth puckering, chewing movements) while taking Ridonex.
• Ridonex may increase the amount of a certain hormone (prolactin) in your blood. Symptoms may include enlarged breasts, missed menstrual period, decreased sexual ability, or nipple discharge. Contact your doctor right away if you experience any of these symptoms.
• Ridonex may rarely cause a prolonged, painful erection. This could happen even when you are not having sex. If this is not treated right away, it could lead to permanent sexual problems such as impotence. Contact your doctor right away if this happens.
• Lab tests, including fasting blood glucose and complete blood cell counts, may be performed while you use Ridonex. These tests may be used to monitor your condition or check for side effects. Be sure to keep all doctor and lab appointments.

• Use Ridonex with caution in the ELDERLY; they may be more sensitive to its effects, especially dizziness upon standing or uncontrolled muscle movements.
