My daughter has been taking Risperdal and has recently developed acne-like problems with her face.

It is unlikely that Risperdal is causing the acne, although some drugs such as lithium are known to flare or produce acne. I suggest that you seek a doctor's advice if your daughter wants treatment for her acne. There is some self-help information at www.AcneGuide.ca. Richard Thomas, MD
