Risperidal Consta Injection?

Are any of you on the risperidal consta injection? What dosage are you on? How has your experiences been?

I used to take it. Did pretty well except I had trouble making it to get my injection twice a month so i switched to invega once a month.

Very nice. What dosage were you on?

I don’t remember. Think it was the highest. I need the highest of invega.

It was absolutly awful. Even worse than invega sustenna. I was hungry all the time and felt mentally awful. All I did was go outside smoke on it and eat. Please dont go on this drug.

Please keep in mind everyone can experience different meds different ways. No one can tell you how you will react. Different doses are also able to give different results. I hated invega at a low dose. Higher helped, though i have sedation and lack of motivation as side effects. But i have no positive symptoms. You have to try a med before you know if it is for you.
