ABSTRACT
Risperidone is a potent antipsychotic agent, used in the management of the manifestations of schizophrenia. And it has recently become one of the most popular antipsychotics. We experienced one case of ventricular premature complexes that occurred during the risperidone treatment in a 53-year-old female patient with schizophrenia. Abrupt aggravation of the cardiac arrhythmia and the associated symptoms suggest the possibility that the use of risperidone might have called them. Although other possibilities exist, risperidone cannot be ruled out as the cause of the patient's cardiac adverse effect.
