Risnia 2mg is an atypical antipsychotic medication primarily used for the treatment of schizophrenia and bipolar disorder (specifically manic episodes) in adults and children[5]. It is also prescribed for managing irritability symptoms in children with autism spectrum disorder[5].
- Schizophrenia: Used to treat psychotic symptoms such as hallucinations, delusions, and thought disturbances[5].
- Bipolar disorder (Manic episodes): Helps control mood swings and manic symptoms in adults and children[5].
- Irritability in autism: Prescribed for managing symptoms like aggression, temper tantrums, and self-injurious behavior in children with autism[5].
Risnia 2mg acts by modulating neurotransmitters in the brain, primarily by binding to serotonin and dopamine receptors, helping to restore their balance and reduce psychiatric symptoms[5].
The medication is available as tablets, orally disintegrating tablets, and solution form, and may be prescribed alone or in combination with other drugs depending on the specific mental health condition[5][7].
