The patent on Risperdal (the regular kind, not Risperdal Consta or Risperdal M-Tab) expired today. This will hopefully lead to cheaper, generic versions of Risperdal in coming weeks, which should lessen the financial burden on fellow Canadian psychos, many of whom do not have prescription drug coverage. It doesn’t really affect me as my meds are covered by the university health plan, but it should make Sun Life very happy.
