Gynecomastia in Boys Caused by The Drug Risperdal

Posted on 28. Jun, 2009 by Dustin in Gynecomastia

I came across this site 24-7 News that reports another case of Gynecomastia being caused by prescription drugs. This time the culprit is Risperdal.

Which has been approved by the FDA, but is being prescribed “off label”, uses that it was not intended or approved for, by some doctors to treat behavioral problems like Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD).

It was reported that many of the cases were permanent and the boys had to under go breast reduction surgery to correct the problem.

Breast Growth in Boys Linked to Risperdal

I think that this is a good example of know what your are putting in to your body or your kids body for that matter. Be sure you have all the facts about a drug before you take it, don’t just take the doctors word for it, do your research.

The FDA allows you to research the their finding about drugs they approve, get a copy of the report and read it. It lists any know side effects and other information found in the clinical trials.
