Adding risperidone to aripiprazole.
General information- Aripiprazole is metabolized by CYP2D6 and CYP3A4 to an active metabolite.
- Risperidone is principally metabolized by CYP2D6 to an active metabolite 9-OH-risperidone (paliperidone).
- This combination of drugs seems not to be very rational and will also have additive side effects.
Start risperidone- Start risperidone according to the general dosing advice.
Cave- Agents with anticholinergic properties may have additive effects when used in combination.[4]
