Can Risperdal Cause Dizziness And Flu Like Symptoms?

I ve been prescribed the generic for Risperdal (.25mg) after disappointing anti-depression drugs like Prozac, and later Fetzima. After the 1st dosage I ve experienced dizziness and flu-like symptoms (which were exasperated after the 1 dosage. Not sure if I actually have the flu, and I can t tell if the discouragement comes from the drug or the possibility that I have some other non-psychological condition. I stopped the Risperdal and wanted to know what might be a good next step.
