I have a friend who has been on Risperdal since March of last year. Prior to being committed into the hosiptal and being diagnosed with a mood disorder, he was smoking marijuana which I am sure heavily influenced his reasons for having to take Risperdal now, but he started to smoke again since he has been on the medication. Would he happen to relaspe becuase of smoking the weed? Or what will happen to him, if he continues to keep smoking while on Risperedal? Please advise
