Quite a few folk on here seem to get withdrawals just before the next shot but I don’t think it’s universal

Sorry to hear jim. How long does it take to kick in once you get the depot?

Can’t you ask your pdoc to change your depot cycle, whatever it is.
For example if you get it every 20 days and it wears off after 19 days, can’t you change it to every 19 days so you don’t run into this problem anymore?

Fluanxol was the first atypically conventional antipsychotics ever made. This depo antipsychotic was released the first time in the early 70’s under the name Depixol. It is very potent serotonin and dopamine antagonist and cobalt psychosis as well as severe anoxty and depression. I would choose depixol in stead of Risperdal consta because I had no effect from risperdole pills.
Hope you get your shot soon so you can feel better @anon94176359.
