My son has been on Risperdal for years and he has no stretch marks.

@A MyAutismTeam Member My son had alot of side effects from Risperidol too, we switched to Seroquel also..he seems fairly happy lately.

We had issues with risperdol and had him switched to Seroquel - too many side effects with risperdol.

Sorry this is a late reply- 2013🤣our daughter 15 has stretch marks on legs I never put to rispiridone she has been in this med since 6 yo and transitioning to Latuda which has been so challenging

My son has lots of huge stretch marks on his back and he is 6ft.almost 1in. He has not been on either of those drugs and we were told it was from growing quickly. My friend's son had the same problem prior and she told me it was growth stretch marks and both boys have huge red marks one up and down the other more curved and hap hazard. neither took those meds but both are over 6 ft. There is not a lot you can do to change the marks but I would think rushing into changing up all of his meds would not make a whole lot of difference...I would ask if such continues to happen in the causal effect or if it would be similar to growth in height stops at some point? Perhaps the change won't make a difference in the amount of marks. I have not had experience with any of those meds though so I'm just sayin'...
