Invega (active ingredient: paliperidone) is a prescription medication used to treat certain mental health conditions by helping restore the balance of specific brain chemicals involved in thinking, mood, and behavior.
Invega is approved for the treatment of the following conditions:
Invega is used to treat schizophrenia in:
Schizophrenia is a long-term mental health condition that affects how a person thinks, feels, and behaves. Common symptoms may include:
Invega helps reduce these symptoms, allowing many people to think more clearly, improve their daily functioning, and participate more fully in everyday life.
Invega is also used to treat schizoaffective disorder in adults.
Schizoaffective disorder is a mental health condition that combines symptoms of schizophrenia with mood disorder symptoms, such as depression or mania.
Symptoms may include:
Invega may be used:
Invega belongs to a group of medications called atypical (second-generation) antipsychotics.
It works by helping balance the activity of dopamine and serotonin, two natural brain chemicals (neurotransmitters) that influence mood, thinking, emotions, and behavior.
By regulating these neurotransmitters, Invega may help:
Invega does not cure schizophrenia or schizoaffective disorder, but it can help manage symptoms and reduce the risk of future episodes when taken consistently as prescribed.
Some people may begin to notice improvements within the first 1 to 2 weeks of treatment, but it may take several weeks to experience the full benefits. Continue taking Invega exactly as prescribed, even if you begin to feel better, unless your healthcare provider instructs you to stop.
Invega is available as an extended-release oral tablet that should be taken exactly as prescribed by your healthcare provider.
It is usually taken once daily and may be taken with or without food. For the best results, try to take your dose at the same time every day.
Swallow the tablet whole with a glass of water. Do not crush, chew, or split the tablet. Because Invega is an extended-release medication, damaging the tablet can release the medication too quickly, increasing the risk of side effects.
Continue taking Invega even if you begin to feel better. Do not stop taking the medication without first consulting your healthcare provider, as your symptoms may return or worsen.
Your healthcare provider will determine the right dose based on your:
Adults with Schizophrenia

Your healthcare provider will determine the most appropriate dose based on your age, weight, and response to treatment.

Invega may be used alone or together with other medications, such as mood stabilizers or antidepressants, depending on your treatment plan.
Invega (Paliperidone) is available in the following forms and strength:
Before taking Invega, tell your healthcare provider about your complete medical history, including any allergies, medical conditions, and all medications you are taking. This helps ensure the medication is safe and appropriate for you.
Do not take Invega if you are allergic to paliperidone, risperidone, or any of the ingredients in the medication.
Some inactive ingredients may also cause allergic reactions in certain people. If you are unsure about the ingredients, ask your pharmacist for more information.
Seek emergency medical attention immediately if you develop signs of a serious allergic reaction, including:
Invega may cause:
Until you know how the medication affects you, do not drive, operate machinery, or perform activities that require alertness.
Alcohol and marijuana (cannabis) may worsen these effects. Avoid alcohol while taking Invega, and talk to your healthcare provider if you use cannabis products.
Paliperidone may reduce your body’s ability to sweat, increasing your risk of overheating and heat stroke.
To help reduce this risk:
If you become overheated, move to a cool place, rest, and seek medical attention if your symptoms do not improve.
If you are pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or breastfeeding, tell your healthcare provider before taking Invega.
If you become pregnant while taking this medication, contact your healthcare provider promptly. They will discuss the potential benefits and risks of continuing treatment during pregnancy.
Invega may increase blood sugar levels, even in people who have never had diabetes.
Contact your healthcare provider immediately if you develop symptoms of high blood sugar, including:
Severely elevated blood sugar can become a medical emergency if left untreated.
While taking Invega, your healthcare provider may regularly monitor your:
Keeping your follow-up appointments and having recommended blood tests can help ensure the medication remains safe and effective.
Invega is usually taken once daily in the morning, although you should follow the schedule recommended by your healthcare provider. It may be taken with or without food, but try to take it the same way and at the same time every day to maintain consistent medication levels in your body.
Some people may notice improvements in symptoms such as agitation, anxiety, or sleep within the first few days of treatment. However, improvements in symptoms such as hallucinations, delusions, and disorganized thinking usually occur more gradually. Many people begin to notice meaningful improvement within 2 to 8 weeks, although it may take several weeks or even a few months to experience the full benefits of treatment.
Invega works by helping to restore the balance of certain brain chemicals, particularly dopamine and serotonin. These neurotransmitters play an important role in mood, thinking, behavior, and perception. By regulating their activity, Invega helps reduce symptoms of schizophrenia and schizoaffective disorder, including hallucinations, delusions, and disorganized thinking.
The amount of time paliperidone remains in your body depends on the formulation you are taking. After stopping the oral extended-release tablets, most of the medication is eliminated from the body within several days. However, long-acting injectable forms of paliperidone (Invega Sustenna®, Invega Trinza®, and Invega Hafyera®) remain in the body much longer and may continue to be present for several months, depending on the specific injection and individual factors.
