Hello,

Yes, your guess is right. Resperidone causes vacant look with mask like face and tremors or shakes. This is to be reported to the treating psychiatrist such that he can adjust the dose or prescribe any alternative drug. Please do consult his psychiatrist and talk to him about your son's symptoms and also your inability to help him.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Pallavi M., Anesthesiologist
