Invega is basically a $3200 version of Risperdal.
I'm going to really push for stopping the Invega and if new pdoc doesn't listen I'll just not show up for the injection, have another severe psychosis, wind up IEA'd again, explain that I stopped the Invega because I'm allergic and I was manic half the time I was on it anyway.
The question for myself and my doc is, what antipsychotic do I try/go back on next?

I believe the APs also stopped my aunt's periods, so it is a common thing.
Have you ever tried Abilify?
