When I switched to invega trinza from monthly shot . It went to the 410 for three months which adds to 136 per month vs the 117 per month I had. Does this mean I’m viewed as doing worse then before? Or better because only need shot every three months.or neither point is relevant. How to convince Dr to take off invega and put on anxiety or depression pill?

Due to the delivery of the drug being different to a monthly depot, it is increased by 17% or so.
I was on 100mg for a monthly depot and now I am on 350mg for 3 months. It is the same effect as the monthly 100mg, but due to its consistency it needs to be upped.
The first time i took the trinza I was knocked out for a week, but the second time I wasn’t so affected. It is like adjusting to a new ap, and the first time you take an ap it takes awhile to adjust to it.
You are not viewed as worse, it is just a different type of drug delivery system.
I rather get the shot, because I won’t take the pills. I found the invega shot to have not bad side effects personally.
