What is Invega Sustenna?

Invega Sustenna is an atypical antipsychotic medicine prescribed to adults to treat schizophrenia or schizoaffective disorder. When you take the medication, it can reduce the prevalence and severity of psychotic episodes and other symptoms.

Whereas many antipsychotic medications are taken as a daily pill, Invega Sustenna is given to you as an injection (by a healthcare professional), usually once a month. Invega Sustenna is released slowly into your system over the course of a month and may be more suitable for you than a daily oral medication if you struggle to take your medication consistently. Your healthcare provider will decide what dose of Invega Sustenna you will need based on your condition and medical history.

Invega Sustenna active ingredients

The active ingredient in Invega Sustenna is called paliperidone. It is a type of medication called an atypical antipsychotic that can reduce the symptoms of psychotic episodes caused by schizophrenia or bipolar disorder.

When Invega Sustenna is injected into you, the paliperidone it contains is absorbed into your blood and transported to your brain. It then binds with areas on the outside of your brain cells (neurons) called dopamine and serotonin receptors. Dopamine and serotonin are chemicals that influence and regulate your brain activity, including your experience of pleasure, your motivation and reward pathways, thinking, memory, and your moods.

By binding with your dopamine and serotonin receptors, paliperidone reduces the effect of dopamine and serotonin on your brain. This has been shown to ease the symptoms of schizophrenia and schizoaffective disorder, and to help stop periods of psychosis and mood change from happening.

  • A rare but potentially fatal condition called neuroleptic malignant syndrome (NMS) caused by an unusual response to antipsychotic medications
  • Changes in your heart rhythm, including palpitations, skipped beats, and slowing down or speeding up of your heart rate, that can cause problems with your heart or make existing heart conditions worse, like heart failure
  • Uncontrolled movements of your tongue, face, mouth, or jaw (tardive dyskinesia)
