UK People is there a injection you can get every three months?

Is there a injection you can get every three months? I get it once a month but I want to go travelling and it’s holding me down.

You mean Invega/Xeplion what kind of injection?

I get depixol. Is there any way I can take it without having to get injection once a month?

You can get flupenthixol tablets. Often goes by the brand name fluanxol in the uk

It’s called Trevicta in here I used to take it but I went back for a shot once a month it’s more effective for me.
