Invage

 

Invega^® (paliperidone) is a medication that is used for treating schizophrenia in adults and adolescents (defined as individuals 12 to 17 years of age) and schizoaffective disorder in adults. Although it is not a cure for schizophrenia, the prescription drug can help improve symptoms and prevent them from returning. Invega, which comes in long-acting tablets that should be swallowed whole, should be taken once a day in the morning. A long-acting injectable form (Invega Sustenna™) is also available.

 

Seek medical attention immediately if you happen to overdose on Invega. Symptoms of an Invega overdose could include drowsiness, a rapid heart rate (tachycardia), and low blood pressure (hypotension). Some of the side effects seen with Invega include headaches, a rapid heart rate, dizziness, and internal feelings of restlessness or jitteriness.
