Hello I have a medication called risperidone 2 mg a anti psychotic. Is it okay to take it with kratom. I am 5'2 female 117.5 pounds with 19% body fat (weighed myself yesterday) and I have been using kratom for like 6 months and I noticed in high doses it can cause cns depression. Is it okay to take kratom at all while on the medication risperidone. I haven't taken the medication yet as of this time. The kratom I have is super green maylasian strain which is known to have opioid and stimulant effects at the same time. At least for me. Is it okay to take kratom while having the medication in your system at all? Can I take kratom in the morning and risperidone at night? I want to know if its okay to mix. I normally use 2-4 grams of kratom per day. Sometimes infrequently.

Hey lybrate-user, I see that you seem quite confused about the combination of your medication and how it may affect your body. I'm wondering if you may find it helpful to reach out to a psychiatrist in your city and discuss this fear directly? Speak to your psychiatrist about the medications you are under and what they are going to prescribe for your present diagnosis. Complete the dosage of the medication prescribed and then report back to your psychiatrist about any side effects you experienced and they would alter your dosage or prescription accordingly. Hope this helps! take care :)
