What it is used for: Schizophrenia.
Indications as listed by the manufacturer: It (risperidone) is indicated for the treatment of schizophrenia.
How it works: The mechanism of action of risperidone in schizophrenia is unclear. The drug’s therapeutic activity in schizophrenia could be mediated through a combination of dopamine Type 2 (D2) and serotonin Type 2 (5HT2) receptor antagonism. The clinical effect from risperidone results from the combined concentrations of risperidone and its major metabolite, 9-hydroxyrisperidone (paliperidone). Antagonism at receptors other than D2 and 5HT2 may explain some of the other effects of risperidone.

Does the job, though the pack is smaller than I expected — worth checking the size before ordering.
Fine quality, wrong choice on my part — I should have asked the pharmacist first about the strength.
The product is genuine but did not suit me personally. Customer service handled the return without any argument.
Works as expected. Took about three weeks to notice a difference, which the product page had already told me to expect.
