About This Medicine
Product description & overview
Invega Sustenna 75mg Injection
Invega Sustenna 75mg Injection is a prescription medication used to treat schizophrenia in adults. This extended-release injection provides long-lasting paliperidone treatment (75mg) for patients struggling with the debilitating effects of this chronic mental illness.
Paliperidone, a second-generation atypical antipsychotic, targets dopamine and serotonin receptors in the brain to help manage positive symptoms like hallucinations and delusions, as well as negative symptoms like apathy and social withdrawal.
Invega Sustenna offers significant benefits compared to conventional oral therapy:
* Long-acting mechanism: Extended-release provides sustained paliperidone levels for up to four weeks, reducing the need for frequent injections.
* Improved adherence: The convenience of a single injection reduces patient burden and potentially improves medication compliance.
* Increased effectiveness: Studies have shown Invega Sustenna is effective in managing schizophrenia symptoms and improving quality of life for many patients.
