Hi,
Using valium with chlorpromazine, usually increase sedation and drowsiness. Also, simultaneous use of chlorpromazine with risperidone may change the rhythm of the heart to a dangerous level. Therefore, it is always advisable to consult your treating psychiatrist in this regards before changing the combination or / and dosage of the drugs.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
