Dear lybrate-user, amisulpride causes constipation as it decreases speed of intestines.
I do not know your condition for which you are taking. Amisulpride causes weight gain too.
I suggest you ask your psychiatrist for ssri as most atypical antipsychotic like amisulpride causes constipation.
You do not have to worry if there are other symptoms. Simply change of medication will reverse the symptoms.
I wish you all the best.

Hi lybrate-user,
risdone mt 0.5 mg is sub-optimal dose even in geriatric population, to treat schizophrenia. The minimum effective dose is around 2 mg per day. So, please discuss with your psychiatrist to consider increasing dose of same.
