Side effects
My mother has auditory hallucinations, so she's been taking medicine for that. The doctor prescribed Riscon Plus tablet. She's been on it for 3 months now. She started having problems like feeling very tired, leg vibrations, and inability to sit properly. So the doctor said he'd give tablets for 3 weeks and reduced the dose of the same Riscon Plus. But now, he's prescribed a new medicine, Propal SR 40. She's scared of this new medicine. Is this medicine reduce side effects?

Hi. Glad you reached out. The symptoms you suggested can be due to side effects of riscon plus. Yes likely the medication was started to reduce the symptoms.
