Risperidone But Not Quetiapine Treatment Is Associated With Increased Appetite But Not Satiety Hormones in Children During An Oral Glucose Tolerance Test: A Pilot Study

Conclusions Risperidone treatment in youth is associated with elevated appetite during an OGTT, with no differences in gut peptides or adipocytokines to explain risperidone's effect on appetite. Further research is needed to explore other mediators of weight gain and metabolic dysfunction in SGA-treated youth.
