A 21-year old woman presents with complaints of milky discharge from
her breasts. She doesn't have any other symptoms and is not pregnant,
nor has been before. She tells the nurse about each medication that she
takes. Which of these drugs may be implicated as the cause of the

Risperidone, an atypical antipsychotic, would likely point to the cause
and should be switched with one less likely to have that same side
effect.
