Abstract
Risperidone is an antipsychotic commonly used in children and adolescents. The use of risperidone is mostly safe in children, but it can cause some side effects. Few cases of enuresis with risperidone have been reported in the literature so far, some of these cases have been associated with the use of antidepressants or other antipsychotics in combination with risperidone. We present an 8.5-year-old patient with enuresis with risperidone.
