depot injection, an intramuscular injection of a drug in an oil suspension that results in a gradual release of the medication over several days.

SO: This would be like Invega 156mL/mg? Is that what your asking about? Because I know that Invega is injected once per months usually. I'm not on any slow release injections though.

Yeah, I was just wondering if anyone else has AP depot injections. I think it's less frequent in US though compared to UK.
