Scand J Urol Nephrol. 2002 Feb;36(1):91-2. doi: 10.1080/003655902317259472.

Abstract

Priapism is well documented as a potential side effect of psychotropic medications. To date, there have been no reports of risperidone-induced priapism in the urologic literature. We report a case of risperidone-induced priapism requiring surgical treatment.
