Hyperprolactinemia: Like other drugs that antagonize dopamine D2 receptors, paliperidone elevates prolactin levels, and the elevation persists during chronic administration. Paliperidone has a prolactin-elevating effect similar to that seen with risperidone, a drug that is associated with higher levels of prolactin than other antipsychotic drugs.
