I read your case report's abstract, Risperidone-Induced Balbar Palsy-like Synd
rome, PMID:20922432.
My family member, 97, has had difficulty swallowing
since the next day after admission to the Kobe Red Cross Hospital(May 18, 201
2)due to cerebellar infarction.He got diapered and strapped to the bed for the
first time. He surely had psychological trauma. The cerebellar infarction res ulted diagnosedly from March 12 falling resulting in facial contusion and internal bleeding. Since then till October 31, he had been given risperidone throu gh three hospitals. I asked the director of the third hospital to stop risperi done due to its side effects. And then, risperidone was completely withdrawn.
According to pharmacists' association, sudden drug withdrawal might result in adverse effect, or retroaction.They recommended dose reduction after long-term medication. Amoban has still been given to him. The doctors here said dysphagia is due chiefly to blood clot and age, and he won't get better. But at the third and fourth hospitals, he takes foods for dysphagia by mouth.
His symptons before admission are as follows:
Aug.2010 one-eye cataract operation, Since then, unable to walk without a sti
ck. neurologically nothing abnormal detected.
Aug. 2011 the other eye cataract operation, still unable to walk without a sti
ck.
Apr.26 2012 instead of a few years long steroid external medication by a town
doctor, resulting in internal bleeding and scrabbling, Yokukansan and Alrock
administered as a drink. after that, feeling sluggish.
