Hello,
Yes. These are the usual side effects of Methylphenidate and Risperidol.
It may also be due to the overdose of the above mentioned drugs.
It is your physician decision to change the dose depending on your child need.
Thus better consult your physician to either revise the dose or switch over to other drugs.
Hope this helps.
