Avatar f tn My doctor is weaning me off invega. He has me on a lower dose 3 mg for a week. Then I discontinue it. He is hoping my other antipsychotic, seroquel xr will be enough. He raised that from 150 to 200 Mgs. Anyone have experience coming off antipsychotics?
Avatar n tn I was on Risperdal for 2 years and I noticed that at the end of the day it would wear off. so my doc put me invega sustenna and my wife noticed the difference pretty quickly. I am taking Gedon too and I am very happy with the effects.

20914619 tn?1637171288 but I have read Invega may cause thyroid issues. If this is so, is it reversible once you stop taking Invega? I'm very concerned! Please help.
Avatar f tn For the first while when I did a major med switch I was off for about 2-3 weeks. I know with my husband going off of invega he was tired for about a week. It should pass if not talk to your doctor, but they will also tell you to give it time.
Avatar n tn s only 2 options which are Invega and the other one I think is rispidol which she basically said invega converts into that or vise versa so basically they said I'm stuck on this one medication and it's been making me heavily depressed I've been having face twitches and leg jerks towards night time. As well as sensations going through my body everytime something stress related happens or even a muscle twitch could set that off.

Avatar n tn HEy guys Ive been on lamictal for a while now and invega and ive been doing pretty good, Id say about 70 percent of where I feel I should be. I still feel a lil sad at times but overall Im in a constructive mindset. My therapis talked about adding an anti depressent in the future if I want so im wondering which one works for yall? I dont want one with sexual side effects(negative) she recommended wellbutrin. How should I feel on this if I decide to take it?
Avatar f tn It was my 1st cesction Wow what a great experience wasnt bad as I taught just the aftermath when the epidural wears off and the pain in your stomach. Thank you to all the people for sending your blessings! Sleepless nights here we go!
Avatar f tn Should I stop consuming cannabis with invega sustenna? And if I don’t what are the interactions I was just told it causes sedation.
Avatar n tn My friend was hospitalized and put on Zyprexa, Trileptal and Invega over a period of 21 days. Now he's been released but can not afford the drugs so he hasn't taken taken any for 5 days. The invega was only given to him 6 days ago, and is a monthly injection, so the withdrawl for that hasn't started yet. I know one isn't supposed to just stop anti-psychotics but he hasn't been able to get Medicare and I don't think he'll manage it right now. So this is his reality...
11416518 tn?1418069976 The only thing that teachers say they say working was the Adderall XR, but it kicked in after he left in the AM and it was done by the time he got home and what I got here was a kid talking 400 mph pacing like a nervous wreck and mood swinging worse than me during PMS! Is there something that can be taken after the XR wears off like 3 pm that will work for homework focus time but not keep him up all night???
Avatar n tn My wife was put on Invega for 7 days while she was in a psychiatric facility (6mg twice a day). She stopped taking it the minute she was released. It's been almost a month since she's had her last dosage. She now has hand tremors and is totally exhausted all the time. I know these are symptoms of the drug.. now long can she expect to have these symptoms? How long does it take for the drug to be completely out of her body?
