Trying Medication for my Stutter Hey Guys! I have had a stutter since I was 5 years old, and at 22, I have officially talked with my doctor about trying an antipsychotic. He is going to put me on Risperidone .5mg qd. I have conducted extensive research and found that this approach has the most positive effects on people who stutter. As a Pharmacy student, this will be interesting as I see how it may possibly change my life for the better or worse. I will keep you guys updated on how the treatment is going. If you have any questions, please let me know. If you have tried a medication, which one was it, and did it help you? Thanks, \- Drug Guy
