hi,
both differs in combination.
Sizodon MD contains only risperidone and is a modified release tablet that acts faster and gets metabolized faster.
Sizodon LS also contain trihexphenydil, an anti cholenergic drug along with risperidone that will ameliorate the side effects of sizodon.
So, i would advice you to go with sizodon LS.
hope i am clear.
