I'd go with D. Risperidone. It's the only one on the list that's commonly available in an oral liquid form, and those tend to require refrigeration.

Ha, good one! Storing Aripiprazole in the fridge would be like putting a Ferrari in the garage - totally unnecessary and a waste of space.

Wait, isn't Risperidone a solid tablet? I think the oral liquid formulation for Risperidone is stored at room temperature.

I think it's Aripiprazole because it's a liquid.

I'm pretty sure it's Risperidone, since most antipsychotics need to be refrigerated to maintain their potency.
