Brand nameNo maker’s card
We didn’t find a savings card or cash price from Risperdal’s maker. Ask the pharmacy for Risperdal’s cash price. With insurance, ask what your plan charges.
Authorized genericNot sold
There isn’t one. An authorized generic is Risperdal itself, from the same company, sold without the brand name, and usually for less. A regular generic is sold, with the same active ingredient: ask the pharmacy for its price.

What to say at the pharmacy
“Before you fill my Risperdal, can you tell me what I’d pay for the brand and for a generic?”
Paying cash? Ask for each one’s cash price. With insurance, ask what your plan charges for each.
What it’s used for
What the FDA label says
RISPERDAL is an atypical antipsychotic indicated for:
- Treatment of schizophrenia
- As monotherapy or adjunctive therapy with lithium or valproate, for the treatment of acute manic or mixed episodes associated with Bipolar I Disorder
- Treatment of irritability associated with autistic disorder
Source: the FDA label for Risperdal (Janssen Pharmaceuticals, Inc.), May 28, 2026. Full label on DailyMed
Good to know
- A regular generic may look different from Risperdal. The FDA requires it to work the same way.
- We didn’t find a savings card from Risperdal’s maker.
- Don’t stop or change a medicine without talking to your pharmacist or prescriber.
