    AbstractRisperidone is a second-generation antipsychotic agent used in psychiatric management, acutely and chronically. A rare adverse effect has been described with its use in the form of orthostatic hypotension especially in pharmaceutical clinical trials. However, there remains a lack of literature on the replication or prevalence of this adverse effect among patients in clinical settings. Hence, we present an incidental case of orthostatic hypotension following Risperidone therapy.Copyright © 2022 National Medical Association. Published by Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
