Which one of these bipolar and anxiety medications would be causing me to have no appetite whatsoever?

I am on Seroquel, Risperidone and Buspirone and lately I have had no appetite whatsoever. Which of these medications would be most likely to cause that? Someone please help 10 points!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

If your lack of appetite is due to nausea it could be from any of the three. However, none of those drugs specifically have ‘loss of appetite’ as a side effects. Seroquel can actually cause an increase in appetite.
If you’ve only recently started taking your medications your body may just need some time to adjust to them. If you’ve been taking them for a while and this is a new problem then you should call your doctor or pharmacist. It may not be the drugs at all, you could have an underlying health problem.
