cognitive functioning

« Back to Glossary Index

Cognitive functioning refers to the mental processes involved in thinking, understanding, and learning. While risperidone is not specifically designed to improve cognitive functioning, it can indirectly help to improve cognitive functioning by reducing symptoms of mental health conditions such as schizophrenia or bipolar disorder. Some studies have suggested that risperidone may have cognitive benefits, such as improving working memory and attention, but more research is needed to fully understand the potential cognitive benefits of the medication.
